Man, I wish I knew that glue trick before I did my quad seat. That would have been so much easier than putting in and removing staples. I have another one to do with some foam repair, and I will do it this way! Thank you, Rudy!

You did a great job making that cover work! I do them for the 300zx guys fairly often and find that renewing the foam really helps fill out the cover when a bit baggy.

Thank you! For people that don’t have an upholstery stapler: Can it be done jus with glue/cement? What glue/cement do you recommend for this? What is the best way to apply the glue (without a gun)? Great videos!!

[@oldschoolautoupholstery]

Thanks for watching! Contact cement with a brush also works just fine!

[@mrprohunterable]

Hey man, thank you for this video! I will be attempting this on my armrest for my Lexus. Was just wondering where I could get that glue spray to make my life easier? Or if you have any recommendations!

[@oldschoolautoupholstery]

Hello Mrpro, You are so welcome! I only use contact adhesive, It can be found and any big box or hardware store and applied by brush. Don't use the stuff in a spray can as that always fails. Please keep liking and watching!

[@Brasel11]

What type of staple gun did you use? The factory staples are 1/8" length. I can't seem to find one that will shoot that size. Thanks.

[@oldschoolautoupholstery]

Hello Brase, Using contact cement is much easier to use for center console covers as sometimes the plastic lid can become brittle and shatter with an air powered staple. If i do have to use 1/4 " staples for thinner projects, I shoot them at a 45 degree angle so they will not penetrate so much. Please keep liking and watching!

[@BigMeechie304]

Can you tell us more about your experience as an American worker in a Chinese factory? Sounds very interesting to me.

[@oldschoolautoupholstery]

Hi Big Meechie, Yep, two years making my model aircraft designs in a city everyone knows now as Wuhan. China sucked... I had to come back as soon as I could. To tell the story would take so much time and writing space. Thanks for your interest! Please keep watching!

[@JDRichard]

Do you use exact same technique if you got a letter cover

[@oldschoolautoupholstery]

Hello JD, Yes the exact same with a leather cover. Thanks for watching!

[@duanedelestienne2997]

So I have to ask... what would the difference in price be if they came to you and asked for a custom job, and got a perfect result? 10% 20% 100% more? Updating this to let you know that I have been smiling throughout this job.

[@oldschoolautoupholstery]

Hello Duane, I'm not sure how to answer that. The person doing the work has the freedom to charge what ever they want. Really it's about throwing out a price you feel is higher than normal and if the customer agrees, Score! You can always discount your price to get the job if you want. Thanks for watching!

[@Deested]

I hope you gave the customer a China marker as a gift. I would love to see what other upholsters work looks like after working with a crappy made cover like the one you were given. Tip #10,000 don’t buy from sites that have a rainbow colored logo or ship things in 2 days with a membership

[@oldschoolautoupholstery]

Hello Deested, Yea, you got that right! I try to tell me customers not to get their seat covers, convertible tops etc. from Amazon. Example. Because the person in China making the top has never even ever seen a 1967 Mustang, but their making a top for one. Please keep liking and watching!

[@maryb.9082]

I searched for a diy replacement. To my surprise you said in your video you ate in Houston!! Me too, and I bought the same piece from Amazon! Great video! Question, could a good hair dryer have the same effect as a heat gun?

[@oldschoolautoupholstery]

Hello Mary, Thank you so much! A hair dryer may work, but it will take much, much longer to get it warm enough. Please keep liking and watching!

what size staples do you use for this?

[@oldschoolautoupholstery]

Hello, For most console covers, I only use contact adhesive because sometimes the plastic can be hard and brittle. If I do use staples, I use 1/4". Please keep liking and watching!
