Custom High Relief Car Door Panel - Automotive Upholstery

✅Get our courses at: www.cechaflo.com
-----------------------------
A customer asked me if I would be capable of sewing down raised channels on his car door panel. For this reason I made a sample to train and show how I would approach it.To tackle this project I had to do the high relief channels on a sheet of thin cardboard. It is a flexible thin cardboard (1 mm thick) used for insoles in the shoemaking industry.
This cardboard has the advantage it can be rolled over under the sewing machine head to make the sewing process easier. It does not alter the raised foams nor the drawings.I have used a 6 mm thick Latex Eva foam.
The gaps between the cut Eva foam pieces is 8 mm. For a real door panel I would like the crevices to be 10 mm wide. An Eva foam from 3 to 4 mm thick is more than enough for car door panels. It is important to consider the window handle rotation. If the foam is too thick, it would rotate with difficulty.
Once the desired pattern is sewn down over the thin cardboard it is then thoroughly glued down to the main door panel cardboard.As we can see it was necessary to create and make a special presser foot (prototype) for the sewing machine. Otherwise it would have been somehow difficult to do the sewing with a regular presser foot.
A heat gun was also very useful to soften the vinyl in order to make the sewing lines easier.I hope you find some inspiration in this video that can be used not only in cars but in furniture too. Of course different sewn patterns can be done following this method.

Amazing work my friend...a fine example of using that custom presser foot too! This makes me want to break out a grinder and give that a shot!

Que buen Jale ases Bro, me acuerdo mandandote un mensaje en el 2010 queriendo que me asieras un Jale i tu me respondiste que no tenias taller pero la estabas pensando mucho habrir uno. como pasan los Anos carnal. asta esta fecha nunca me ensene a tapisar pero siempre fue algo que me interesaba, ojala que estes bien y te la pases super en estos dias festivos..

[@Cechaflo]

Estimado amigo, me da mucho gusto recibir este amable comentario. Nunca es tarde para aprender algo de tapicería, solo hay que decidirse sin pensarlo mucho y comenzar con algun proyecto que tengamos a la mano., aunque sea pequeño. ¡Le deseo lo mejor en compañia de sus seres queridos en estas Fiestas Navideñas y un Próspero Año Nuevo 2024!

[@user-eo5ii7gt5h]

Супер!

[@user-lg2ro4sc7d]

А что это за белый материал?

[@Cechaflo]

Latex Eva Foam. Shoemakers use it for insoles

[@Eduardo17490]

E ae MESTRE tudo bem, sua maquina é transporte triplo ou duplo, obrigado por compartilhar seu trabalho

[@Cechaflo]

It is a triple transport sewing machine.

[@StariyBashmak]

Хорошая работа. Есть вопрос -- как вы удаляете следы разметки от серого карандаша??

[@Cechaflo]

The white spirits (mineral spirits/white gasoline) is useful. Do a test beforehand on the material you need to take off the pencil marks.

[@StariyBashmak]

@@Cechaflo Спасибо за совет. Ваше видео всегда очень интересно и полезно. Вы отличный мастер своего дела.

[@jamesstroud1302]

I really enjoy and appreciate your videos, very helpful. What is that marker you use to draw the line on your material?

[@Cechaflo]

The marker is called ' leather silver marking pen' (refill) www.amazon.com/Leather-Marking-Dressmaking-Quilting-Supplies/dp/B0BRTDRWPY

[@beaumontboy]

I love this video, and now I'm going to make a presser foot like that. Thank you for this video! What thread are you using, and why?

[@Cechaflo]

I am using polyester thread 138 size. It is commonly used for decorative stitches on top view.

[@beaumontboy]

@@Cechaflo thank you

[@shrconstruction]

Love your videos... Just started learning with a Juki lu562..... Picking up an old singer double needle needle feed machine tomorrow. Can you tell me where to get a set of those angled pliers you use in many of the videos... They look very handy.

[@Cechaflo]

Those are called 'orthodontic pliers' www.amazon.com/Orthodontic-Position-Appliance-Bending-Instrument/dp/B07CSMFFGV/ref=sr_1_8?keywords=orthodontic+pliers&qid=1703737

[@nicolasgattoni7848]

Que lindo quedó !!...... consulta el pie de máquina es casero o me pareció........

[@Cechaflo]

Es un pié de presión casero (prototipo que puede ser mejorado) especialmente para coser en ranuras de bajo relieve. En este otro video muestro uno parecido que fabriqué a mano: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gJbCXoxtmMmfe7c

[@davido2047]

Hey Ceasar if y9u have time could you pist a link the celtec matetial you are using in you recejt barch of videoss? Im fi ding to manny different types ans id like to buy the correctone to give this type of project a try! Thabk you in advance.

[@Cechaflo]

I get this cardboard from local suppliers (shoemaker's stores)here in Mexico. The grey Celfil board is more flexible and softer. Hopefully this link is useful: www.avetcoinc.com/product/celtec-board/?attribute_pa_package=4-sheets www.avetcoinc.com/product/celfil-r/?attribute_pa_color=gray

[@davido2047]

@Cechaflo thabk you sir I really appreciate it. I could not really tell how thick the material was and didn't want to buy the wrong stuff. I'm wxcitted to give this a try

[@Cechaflo]

The sheets are no more than 1.5 mm thick.

[@deanmesserer3554]

thank you. how thick is that shoe board you're using?

[@Cechaflo]

The thin flexible cardboard is 1 mm thick. The cardboard base is 3 mm thick. The pink board is called celtec. There is another grey one much better called celfil

[@user-jb5if6pq9x]

qué número es el grosor de espuma? gracias

[@Cechaflo]

It is Eva (latex)foam 8 mm thick

[@lancegrell765]

How did you make that presser foot?

[@Cechaflo]

I made it out of a piece of iron. A similar process I used for a double needle machine presser foot kzbin.info/www/bejne/ql6TqZSqj7uZjNk

Шикарно, а крепить её на двери как?

The pattern is sewn down over a thin flexible cardboard which is then attached to a real car door panel.

Hello. very cool work. What is the name of the fundamental substrate, and what is the name of the material that creates the relief?

[@Cechaflo]

The substrate is MDF cardboard 3 mm thick. The reliefs were glued down over a thin cardboard called Celtec used for shoe's insoles. The white material is called Latex Eva foam 6 mm thick mostly used in the shoemaking industry for insoles too.

[@New_rul]

@@Cechaflo Thank you

[@samhutson7966]

Is it 1/4”or 1/2” foam?

[@Cechaflo]

The latex Eva foam is 6 mm thick

[@edwardcaldwell9644]

What is the white material that you’re cutting in the beginning?

[@Cechaflo]

As mentioned in the video description it is Latex Eva Foam (memory foam medium density) It is used in the shoemaking industry for shoe's insoles.

Donde puedo conseguir una makina como esa?

[@Cechaflo]

Estas máquinas usadas generalmente se consiguen en los talleres que reparan máquinas de coser industriales. También por internet en el mercado libre. Anuncios en el peripodico. En páginas de facebook que anuncian lo relacionado con tapicería, costura industrial, venta de máquinas de coser, etc. Esta maquina es industrial de triple arrastre Pfaff 1245-706.

como se llama la espuma?

[@Cechaflo]

Espuma Eva latex con memoria para recuperar su forma después de ser presionada. Los zapateros lo usan para plantilas de zapatos.
