Jamesemt Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 I'm recovering a grotty old peavey 2x12 and was wondering if carpet is any easier than vinyl?? Any other recovering advice? I've bought the textured paint but have had second thoughts... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make sure it's proper carpet for the job though. Here's what they don't tell you though. Do the main parts with spray adhesive. Do the edges and corners with a decent hot glue gun and a very sharp stanley blade. Watch your fingers - roasting hot gluey carpet is a nasty combination! Staples don't work on carpet. It's too soft to cover any voids if you have any. Glue some of that fibreglass mesh for bridging big holes in car panels first if you have any.
