Flocking Question

I ordered and received a flocking kit from Doug at crowmart. It came with a pint of oil based gloss black paint as the undercoater. I was wandering if anyone has used this or has tried spray adhesive like 3M's Super Strength 90. I would think the spray adhesive would be more flexible and therefore more durable. However, by the time there is a coating failure the flocking may need to be reapplied anyway.

 

What's y'all's thoughts?

Hi Greg,

That sure seems like a good idea.  I am gonna try that soon and will report results.

Regards,

I have done it both ways and my advice is to stay away from the spray adhesivefurious I don't like it!!! Paint works much better IMO. Best if you give it a try That stuff just sucks no way around it........

I've done my share of veneer work and IMO spray adhesive won't hold up to the elements.

I flocked 10 3 years ago using paint & they've held up real good. I don't baby them, just throw them in a deke bag & the flocking is still all on & not flaking off. Never tried the adhesive.

Not sure about the spray adhesive but I tried the spray on bedliner on a couple decoys. Over time it proved to be not as good. Paint was better. I have, however, used contact cement with success. It is about the same as paint....but not any better.

CrowMart has stuck with the paint because it is the best at this time. I've been flocking goose heads for 30 years and crow dekes for 10. When I find or hear of better you can rest assurred that CrowMart will sell/recommend it.

Hey Doug at CrowMart, how come your forum photo is of you holding a coyote instead of crows? I'd think that anyone that owns a crow store would have a photo of at least a couple of dead crows in it. Maybe your products aren't what you say after all.

And seriously, do you expect anyone to believe that you holding that coyote is real? I've seen some bad PhotoShop work before, but that takes the cake for cryin' out loud!
