I have used outdoor carpet adhesive with good results on thick felt,
however, F1 hard white felt is expensive and so makes mistakes pricey.
the carpet adhesive is not a contact style glue and lets you do a little
position adjustment. Of course a compatibility test is in order.

Good Luck.

If you have a local industrial supplier of gasket material, "boiler
felt" or "gasket felt" is a very cheap option. I picked up more than
enough 1/4" grey felt for a trailer and rigging gadgets from the
shop's scrap barrel for about $5. The new stuff was on 10' wide rolls
like carpet.

Carpet glue, carpet tape (2-sided adhesive) or silicone caulking work
fine as glue. I chose tape just because it is less messy and allows
easier replacement in the future.

That said, the McMaster Carr felt with peel-n-stick adhesive looks to
be the best stuff if cost is no object but I wish it were available in
red to match Cobra trailers.
