Occasionally, it is difficult to find a new and original molded foam for a type of vehicle. That is why an upholsterer should resort to some tips to repair the foam in a way it would last for a prudent time.
Perhaps, this VW backrest molded foam is easy to find, but the customer wanted the repair, instead.
This foam was still at the point of being rescued by adding some protection/reinforcement on top and on its reverse side. Fortunately, I have had at hand high density scraps of foam. Otherwise, I would have had to go to a junkyard to find a still good seat foam.
I hope you find these tips useful!

I'll have to watch this again when I'm no longer homeless. Sleeping in my car ruined the bolsters and the frame jams into my sides now.
Better days are ahead bro. Stay focused. Look for opportunities. Give 110%. I too was “wayward” at one point. But with the same formula and that determination. In two months I was up. Haven’t looked back since. Now I’m up. I’m talking UP UP.

Thank you
Спасибо, МАСТЕР👍👍👍
Good job
Отличная работа!
I just did something like this a month or so ago. I picked up an inexpensive garment/drapery steamer and used it to clean and 'plump up' the foam before I started reconstruction of it. It rejuvenates the foam, and as a bonus takes away a lot of that 'old car stink'! You can also use it to tighten up the leather (if you have it) afterwards as well.
A steamer has many uses... for pseudo 'dry-cleaning' of cloth upholstery or foam, try spraying on something like carpet cleaner, agitate it with a brush (if appropriate), then steam it and immediately suck the liquid out with a shop vac (use a slit attachment on the end of the hose). I've had very good luck with this method on everything from cloth upholstery, to baseball hats, to pizza delivery 'hot bags'. I use the Folex brand of spray carpet cleaner.
@@hxhdfjifzirstc894 Thanks for your tip!
I've seen that done before but didn't know you can use it on leather to tighten. Thanks for the great tip I will be using this along with what Cechaflo has shown in the repair presentation video. Again thanks DrFiero
é tipo de conteudo que falta no brasil sem mentira e enrolacao,obrigador encinar mostrar seu conhecimento e trabalho
Concordo amigo. Estou iniciando nesse mundo de tapeçaria automotiva, e estou custando achar conteúdos bons iguais a esse.
nice video congratulations
Great! Thanks!
Gracias por compartir
Hi good nigth congrautlations,,, nice to see your video,,, with all atention in this job in the seat,,, greetings and have a good time,,, your friend Oscar de Playa del Carmen Q R México,,,
Super! Nice!
Great video! This is how I repair foam in boat seats. At first I tried to cut the repair foam in the shape of the bad spot. This always showed threw the cover. Then I started doing it like you do and using a sander to shape it better. What kind of contact glue do you use? I can only get it to work good when I spray it on. It never sticks when brushed on.Thanks for all your videos
If your in the states. I use 3M "pliobond" from mcmaster
Ese asiento de coche llevaba muchos kilómetros, pero después de la "cura de rejuvenecimiento" está preparado otra vez para rodar muchos años más! 👏👏👏😁😁😁
Asi es, se retapizo como nuevo el asiento. Con respecto a la espuma, lo mejor es reemplazar la pieza por una nueva o en mejor estado. El cliente no pudo conseguir una nueva pieza y me solicitó/ordenó bajo su propio riesgo que lo reparara lo mejor que pudiese quedar. Y si se reparó para que durara unos años mas.
@@Cechaflo El cliente manda! 👏👏 Hay ocasiones en que no se puede conseguir un repuesto o si se puede, sale muy caro, así que siempre se puede seguir la frase de las 3 Erres "Reduce, Reuse, Recycle" 😉😉
Yep. That's exactly how I do it; except I typically use burlap on the back instead of trunkliner. It's cheaper and works well.
Muito bom
I have to agree with the electric carving knife, but to each their own, and I'm glad you put something on the back of the foam
Only thing I'd do different is at the very beginning, steam the foam to bring it back to its original shape...
nice
Thanks for doing this video. I've been hoping you would post a foam repair video. What is the black material used, trunk liner carpet?
Yes, it is trunk liner carpet.
Спасибо за отличное видео! Есть чему у вас поучиться.
I wish Cechaflo was my grandad !

Od spodu gąbka dobrze wyklejona ale z góry gdzie jest brak gąbki powinno być wycięte wszystko na płasko następnie doklejona większa gąbka i tarką do styropianu uformowany kształt na nowo na wzór tego z drugiej strony.
Greetings from Italy, thank you for sharing your work, can you tell us what material did you use to cover the seat?
It was done in fabric por the top panels and automotive vinyl for lateral pieces.

Show!
Como le hacen o de donde sacan esos asientos de auto viejo que salen impecables sin nada de oxido
A mi todos los que me toca tapizar estan que hierven de oxido hasta los mas nuevos llegan ya con oxido 😅😅😅😅
Спасибо, не знал, что так можно.
Semplice su questo tipo di auto quando non c'è lombari o airbag connettori particolari o cuciture con filo fragilizzato per air bag laterale o visto lavori con cuciture con filo normale poi in caso di urto la cucitura non si lacera. Americani
- I have a 2009 Toyota Land Cruiser 70, but there is a big hole in the seat cover. I wonder if I can find the same kind of cloth and from where
Hopefully you can find a similar fabric :

I live in California. Where can I buy the VL-2000 glue you are using?
This glue is only sold locally in Mexico.
If you are in the USA, you would need to get:
Landau contact cement: www.ebay.com/itm/254593470049 (most car trimmers use this glue in the USA. It is sprayable and brushable)
Petroni's glue:
www.ebay.com/itm/112451310211 (brushable) Greg uses the glue in this video:

Автору рекомендую посмотреть в сторону литьевых двухкомпонетных пенополиуретанов
основния проблем за скъсване на дунапрена е меките пружини на седалката, тя прапада при сядане. Може с клещи да се изкривят пружините, ефекта е отличен. И лепене разбира се.
Wow

Bonjour quel grammes et quel matériel utilisez vous svp
I have used a hard density foam shoemakers use it for shoe's insoles.
It is much easier to get the same foam density from old seats in the junkyard (salvage cars)

Time is money …quantity can be achieved faster …slowest upholster I’ve ever seen I’ve been around alot of upholstery spray adhesive and electric knife would be alot faster hack saw blades come in handy but seemed like the slowest process I’ve ever witnessed thanks for vid👍🏻
Этот ремонт не надолго. Кустарно
The glue needs throwing away
The more dense the glue is the better, in case of old foam repairings. So, do not throw away your old glue cans.
😍🙄🙄😍😙😙↗️😙
🤦♂
That fix wont last why?
Because the bible says so: "never mend an old garment with a new patch" because the new patch will tear that old foam that its allmos disolving by itself"😇😇😇
Where did you learn how to butcher a foam repair like that? The foam is so broke down that’s why it’s all tore up. Buy a new back foam bun or cut the old foam off with an electric knife, not a damn hacksaw, use HR3070 foam. And ever heard of burlap? Use it.
What to do if the customer wanted it this way. Of course, I suggested buying a new foam which is cheap. He said no...just do the repairs as requested under my own risk.
Anyways, it has been 6 months and the repairing and reupholstery is still in good shape. I saw this customer yesterday and he is very happy with the job.
