Velcro - the MOW I got actually came with Velcro on the back. If you have to add if I recommend hot gluing it in place

Mine came with the soft part of the velcro, can I see yours?

I'm sorry - it was only the soft part I had on mine as well when I got it! My mistake.
I had some industrial strips of velcro that I attached to the other side. Because of the weight of various objects in one of my pouches (chest lights, amp, etc.) it was pulling the sticky part of the velcro loose from the belt, so I ended up hot gluing it in place. That held for some time, but it loosened again, but then I used E6000 glue to keep it stuck.

So you didn't stitch the velcro on though?

I received his belt today. It looks great, just a little too new. I think the spray on Melatonian Nu Life mention above will work great. I would like to add that he ships quickly. I also got his boots and girth belt. Most everything else is from Bobamaker.

Did you sand down the area where you glued the E6000 on?

Nah just glued it and clamped it.

Is it screen accurate to have the yarn tied at the back of the belt?

I used the idea you used Kev with the weathering, but I also used the idea Drokkul used with dabbing black shoe polish in some areas. I also scratched my belt up so it looks exactly like Deathproofs.

I BELIEVE - no. May want one of the Fett experts to weigh in on this. I think the yarn or cords were added to the costume for the exhibits.
