Hello, I am enjoying all of your presentations. Thank you. May I recommend that you tell the viewer details like the thickness of the foam backing, the kind of stitches you use and why, the thickness of the material you use for the welt, stuff like that. I know literally nothing about upholstery and this will go a long way for me. Thanks again. Great stuff and you are an excellent instructor. You should teach those kids in upholstery school in your retirement.

[@oldschoolautoupholstery]

Hello and thank you for all your kind words. As stated in my intro video on my channel page, These are not step-by-step instructional videos.

Amazing work! Great tips you shared!!! It would be great to learn how much glue really is to be sprayed between the foam and vinyl when doing inserts. I got a hog ring in my truck tire thanks for the tip!!

[@oldschoolautoupholstery]

Whenever contact adhesive glue is sprayed, it should be a light overcoat that does not at all saturate the materials.

Hi Richard- i have been watching many of your videos and they are very helpful. I am having a problem when i sew a row for a pleat. At the end i pull the sewn material away to the left of the needle. The thread through the needle goes left to right. When i pull it away to create slack the cut the thread- this seems to shread the thread because it is pulling on the needle. In one of you videos you said to finish sewing with the needle up because that way it wont need to pull the thread as it is going around the bobbin. How can i come to the end of a row of stitching, then cut the thread , move to the next row and just start stitching without having to actually hold the thread ends. I hope you can follow what i am asking.

[@oldschoolautoupholstery]

Hello John, Thanks for hanging in there with me. You can try to not hold the thread and see if your machine will accept that. My old Chandler machine, I didn't have to hold the thread all the time, but on occasion, the top thread would overload in the bobbin. So it really just became a habit to hold the thread. I have to hold the thread on my Juki much more often. Please keep liking and watching!

[@johngreve8813]

Hi Richard- thanks for your quick reply. I guess like you said i may have to hold it. Something i thought of is that thread could be shredding because i might be using not a big enough needle. The thread shreds and i have to keep rethreading the needle. I will check but i think i am using a #92 thread. Maybe an 18 needle- i could try using a 20 but didnt want to be putting a big hole in the vinyl. Is 92 a good size thread for car upholstery? Thanks - enjoy your day😊

[@oldschoolautoupholstery]

@@johngreve8813 Hello John, You are so welcome! T-92 is what I have always used. Maybe try changing the needle? My needles are 135X17. Please keep liking and watching!

It would be great if you could show attaching the backrest part of the cover complete with the listing wires and hog rings. All of the videos show attaching the hog rings to the seat but the backrest is never shown and to me... that's trickier. :). Thank you.

[@oldschoolautoupholstery]

Hello Madeline, You are so welcome! Well, the customer I had in this video, just needed the bottom cushion insert changed out. Maybe one day, I will get that customer. Really, to find out. Just take your backrest apart. Then you will know how it goes back together. Please keep liking and watching!

What brand of vinyl is the best to do cars seats like in this video,thank you for the videos you making

[@oldschoolautoupholstery]

Hello, Brand is not important, the quality is. Don't be fooled by stupid made-up names like "Pleather" or " Faux Leather." All vinyl is plastic over a cloth backing. Buy from a reputable upholstery supplier. Thanks Pal!

So when you sew the old black leather to new red vinyl are you sewing in the old holes in the black leather or making new holes moved in wards so old holes not visible when complete to finished side.

Happy Belated Christmas…I have a question re captain chair from a pontoon boat. The seat and the IB have Velcro that was Glued to the foam where the seams were in the seat and IB and the loop portion was sewn onto the seam. In your experience is gluing the Velcro to the foam secure enough? If not what would you suggest?
