Title: Black Tolex touchup
Post by: SILVERGUN on February 03, 2014, 01:55:53 pm

I've used this a couple times now and I'm pleased with the results.
3M brand black weatherstripping adhesive makes a nice "one step" touchup for black tolex, with tears or just chunks taken out.
3M part #08011 or (0 51135)
It is not a shiny black, and is very easy to work into the standard tolex texture with just your finger...

When dry, it blends almost seamlessly and holds up pretty well.

I use Kiwi Liquid Instant Wax Black after a good cleaning to restore the color.  Works like a charm.
