Sarah, just a thought: ...wondering if a heated-up soldering iron (of the 'right' type) could possibly do the trick? (i.e holding it near the desired surface -not touching it!).
Your Streamliner is really starting to be a looker, if not already!

If you take a few 'scrap' pieces of your binding material and test them in different temps, you'll find the point that makes it workable for the particular project AND you'll be able to see how much TIME you have to work with it before it cools! A heat gun or solder iron is touchy to figure out distance and time from material in order to keep it smooth. Just my thoughts.
