Stair renovation

[Icalasse]

Hi
Has anyone glued a new carpet over the old one?
This concerns felt carpet, and instead of removing the old carpet, which apparently can be problematic.
What kind of glue should I use in that case?
Grateful for tips and advice.
Best regards, Lasse.

What is the problem with removing the old one?
If you manage to save the old pieces, you have good templates to measure out the new ones that you then glue on.

Wasn't the last thread enough...?

That was not an answer to the question.....

Answer No! You will not get a single response saying that you should keep the rug....

That still wasn't the question... so I request not to receive answers that don't address the question I asked.

This is what a stair renovation looks like.
Everything else is more or less cheating

Are you a salesperson at Lundbergs or what? There are plenty of other methods that are not cheating.

Is it the old or new carpet that is felt?

No, of course not a seller, just very pleased with the renovation I did myself, and the previously slippery pine staircase became nice and not slippery. Some people paint their steps and they become slippery again.
It was a few years ago and still looks new. Oak in the steps is durable.
Easy to keep clean and durable. I oil the steps again every few years.
I have also installed lighting under each step, improving the staircase even more for walking in the dark.

I removed a couple of boring posts.

New carpet

 

[hempularen]

And what type of surface do you want to glue onto?

I have since added lighting under each step and got a staircase that became even better to walk in when it's dark.

Satisfied you should be. Very nice result. I am going to do a similar stair renovation myself soon. Just didn't see the reason to call other ways to do it cheating. It's up to everyone to choose how they want their stairs, right?

My initial question was if anyone had glued a new felt carpet on an old one, and if so, which adhesive is recommended?
Got heckled for the question...not so fun...
