PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a bonding method for skin which can reduce the number of locking pins, permit bonding to be conducted on the base material of a skin even for a product whose shape is complicated or much recessed, and can attain smooth and fine finishing even for a skin whose elongation is poor. SOLUTION: After a skin 3 is set on a cavity mold 1, decompression and suction is conducted from a through hole 12 formed at the mold surface 1a of the cavity mold 1 while a clearance between the peripheral edge 31 of the skin and the cavity mold 1 is being sealed, and the skin 3 is made to follow the mold surface 1a. A mold 2 where a base material 4 is locked is then lowered, and the skin is brought into pressure contact and bonded onto the surface of the base material through adhesives applied to the skin 3 or the base material 4 beforehand. The base material 4 is left on the cavity mold 1, and the mold 2 is raised. After the peripheral edge 31 of the skin is disposed on the back surface side of the base material 4, the mold 2 is lowered again, and the peripheral edge 31 of the skin is included and bonded on the base material back surface side. |
