Default Door skin mod

Next time you take off your doorskins coat them with poly resin. If any screws pulled through lam on a few layers of cloth over the enlarged hole.
If a clip pulled through lam it back on.
Same goes for the velcro pad, glue it back.

I did this a long time ago since I had those problems and these skins are only stamped cardboard. At least the back is a bit more water resistant and stronger. I didn't lam the whole thing just painted it with resin.

If the vinyl is pulling away from an edge glue it back down with instant glue, thats how I finished my speaker hole. You can stretch and stick smoothly and quickly.

Good suggestion ... painting the inside surface with ANYTHING would be a 10-fold improvement.
