I once worked at a place that flocked floor mats. These were done by
machines but they also had hand held devices for prototype work. Mostly
plastic, insulated, containers that held the flock and a high voltage
positive electrode. The flock was shaken out onto a mat where a thin
coating of glue had been applied in certain areas. Under the mat was
the high voltage negative electrode. The high voltage would make the
flock fibers stand on end instead of just laying flat. The voltage I
think was somewhere around 30 or 40 thousand volts. I once made them an
improved model that worked much better than the store bought ones by
using a Tesla coil kit.

Interesting. In what way was your flocker better than the bought ones?
Wondering what the performance criteria for such a thing is. Better
dispersion? Better stick-up-ness of the fibers? Can I use polyester resin
as the glue?
