Very nice. I just flocked the platter on a 1942 Philco over the weekend. I bought some Donjer flocking fibers, adhesive paint, and applicator from my local Woodcraft. I think it turned out pretty well but I ended up getting finger impressions in the flock when I turned the platter over to remove some masking tape I had applied (I let the paint dry for more than the recommended 15 hours before doing this). I don't know if I'll be able to raise the fibers to get rid of the impressions or not.

How did you apply this flocking material? Did you just sprinkle it on?
