Packard's vendors that did door panels used die presses combined with steam and sometimes adhesive too.. One of these vendors was Mitchell-Bentley Company in Owosso, Michigan. If you stood outside of the building, you could see several chimneys rising out of the roof. Each of those chimneys would let out a puff and column of white "smoke" which was actually hot steam. A very magical look to the process.

Might be magical, but are you sure they weren't signalling election of a new Pope?
