Default Looking for a thread about leather install

A while back I remember reading a how to on installing redline leather bits to the console and armrest. It was a very good write up and talked about the specific adhesive that was used. I think it was a brush on adhesive, IIRC. I thought I subscribed to the thread, but it isn't in my list so I guess I failed to do so. Anyone remember the thread or maybe have it saved? Thanks for any help you can provide.

I have lots of experience with Redline trim pieces, and I may have participated in that thread. The best glue is shoemaker’s contact cement, either BARGE or PETRONIO’S. Far superior to the 3M Super 90 I previously used for almost everything.
