John,
I tried your method of using acrylic paint to adhere the flock in the last run of boxes that I did and found it significantly better than using PVA glue. The coating was more even across the bottom of the boxes which was particularly noticeable on the bigger drawers. Thanks for the tip.

Cheers,

Rhys.

Occasionally I come up with something that works LOL.

Have a great Xmas.
