Used a different type of material maybe? Mine is the old Q supplied material
which is like thick (about 5mm) 'fuzzy felt' that children use - it looks quite
a forgiving sort of random non-pattern of many greys, so It may even be
possible to get a butt joint without it showing - I'll find out in the next few
days if I survive the fumes!

He used 5 or 7 pieces, i can't quite remember now if he had to use separate
for the rear pillars.
They were all stitched together before being fitted to the car.
He started sticking it up across the car roughly in line with the B pillars
and used a couple of T shaped bit of wood (like a very wide headed broom upside
down) wedge from the floor to roof to hold it up as he went along.

Thanks for the advice guys - I've always waited until contact was dry
before joining (with evo stick) and never had a problem. I tried it again and
kept testing until I thought it was tacky but not wet - joined the 2 together
and the roof rectangle is in place- so thanks for the help. I'll finish off the
sides tomorrow at leisure, as the fumes nearly overcame me! Jim - did your
trimmer use seperate pieces for the A, B, and C pillars or was the roll very
wide? The roll I had was not a lot wider than the roof, but ok for length.
I anticipated cutting the felt at the screens and 'splaying out' to run
down the A and C pillars, but now it's in position I don't think it will mould
enough, so I may have to have joins. Regards, Martin
