I make sure I spread an even, but thin coat over the area to cover, using a large paintbrush, making sure not to miss anywhere, as this will cause air bubbles. A careful smoothing of the fabric is then all it takes – making sure not to pull in the wrong direction to the weave. Any seepage should be OK, as the glue dries clear. I carefully trim the edges and gently flick them with the gluey brush and smooth any fibres down firmly with my finger. <br />Hope that helps,<br />NikiNiki Fretwellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06453900065526512512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30438487.post-39393333124227642022011-11-20T20:12:11.283+00:002011-11-20T20:12:11.283+00:00Lovely chest of drawers...
