Making Alcantara Door Cards for a 350z | Car Craft ASMR
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
When these Alcantara doors cards were first made for my 350z, there were some problems; including a lifting panel due to missing relief seams and an area of messy top stitching.
Here we take the doors apart and remake them using a better pattern and techniques, showing the entire process from end to end should you wish to try this yourself.
ASMR quiet car crafting. No talking. No music. Just the sounds of the process.

Z questions : 1/ can you threat Alcantara against water / raindrops / stains ? or is the waaterproofing spray changing the texture ? 2/ why did you decided to make your own pattern and not copy the existing one ? because of seam / fabric orientation preference ?

Alcántara is already hydrophobic, so if you drop water on it, it just runs off; but on other similar materials you could use a hydrophobic spray to achieve the same result. And I didn't reuse the old pattern because it wasn't quite right for the card, and so was lifting in one area due to the tension. I needed a new pattern to fix that.
Great work, seems that the sewing machine let you down with the stitch inconsistencies, otherwise perfect. Keep it up

Yup it absolutely did. I think I'll go back to full industrial soon enough which will rectify that. Appreciated though
Where did you buy this alcantara from?
