I recently purchased a large flocking kit to touch up my dekes and add some flocking to the tails and white patches. The only thing this kit did not include was an adhesive for the flocking. It was recommended to use a flat black or white paint. I was just wondering if anyone has found anything better to use other than paint. (glue maybe) I have never attempted this before and any guidance on adhesives or things I should watch for in case I am doing something would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

use a spray glue that will stick to plastic thats how we do ours the spray makes it a quicker process too. we did ours 3 years ago and none of it has come off

I've never done it but maybe like 3Ms Super 77 adhesive spray would work...probably similar to what shoreboy mentioned

I heard if you are gonna use the paint you want to let it sit out for a while and thicken up for the best results. I know the adhesive you get with the green head gear kits is black so you may want to just try a small spot with glue if you are going to do that.

Jeff told a buddy of mine to use rustoleum paint and it work great.
