    I admire a lot your work always a neat and gorgeous.
    You made my day with technic #82 at 38..48 minute.
    Other technic I saw during top stitching you don't do reverse, instead you continue sewing outside on the seam allowance!! Brilliant👏.
    I don't have nothing to do with uphostery, just an enthusiastic with a sewing machine for some hobby projects.
    Just one question, you are offset from the machine and you make straight lines!!!
    Congratulations👏

    You explained how vinyl is directional, but when laying out, I never saw you look at the direction so that you got the pattern going the correct direction. Then--- why after stitching the white and black you always turned the piece over and stitched down the black side of the seam from the outside?

    • @oldschoolautoupholstery
      @oldschoolautoupholstery  7 місяців тому

      Hello Gin, I assure you that the grain of the vinyl was directional. You can see, that I showed it in the video. You are welcome to see it again. I always new the direction because it was so obvious. The end product was all the grains were all going the same direction. If they were going different directions, it would look very amateur. I was sure to do it the right way because I have had very happy customers for 44 years. The outside stitch on the black carbon vinyl is called a top stitch. Most common on motorcycle seats, jet ski seats, some automotive and marine application. I hope your questions are answered to your liking. please keep liking and watching!

    I used those staple and they will rust in saltwater. I switched to monel staple made for marine applications.
    The seat foam is also wrapped with a plastic bag. Without it, rhe foam will absorb water and weigh a ton and take for ever to dry out.

    • @oldschoolautoupholstery
      @oldschoolautoupholstery  7 місяців тому +1

      Hello Allen, I have always thought the opposite. Plastic traps water and the foam never dry's, and the wood rots. There is no air wicking through plastic. The plastic is an aid to install a seat cover. The vinyl itself keeps the water out as water does not pass through vinyl. Just sayin' Please keep liking and watching!

    • @ottohoekstre9732
      @ottohoekstre9732 7 місяців тому +1

      The plastic you saw was not a water barrier! It is a thin noiseless assembly plastic called "Slip Ease". Marine foam designed to let the water flow through it to dissipate and be captured and cause mold. Watch and learn before commenting.

    • @allenmarquez7527
      @allenmarquez7527 7 місяців тому +1

      You just cover the top to repel the water. Water still drains on the bottom. The seat weighs significantly more without the plastic after riding and takes a lot more time to dry out.
