🔸 To work with leather is not the same as working with vinyl. Vinyl stretches evenly regardless if it is 2 way stretch vinyl or a 4 way stretch one. Leather behaves almost similarly. It is more stretching breadthwise than lengthwise. But the rule is not 100% to be followed. Some leather fibers are loose and others are tight lined up in the same direction.
🔸 Before performing a project in leather that needs to be shaped we should choose a soft and pliable leather material to make things easier. If we learn, understand and put in practice these shoemaking techniques we will be capable of saving unnecessary sewings and our job will be close to an OEM piece from the factory.
🔸 Nowadays, different car interior pieces are manufactured in a different way as they were done in the past. Door panels are included in this new array of manufacturing. For instance, plastic material has come to replace cardboard that was used in the past years.
🔸 A door panel is composed of several plastic sections, including the armrest which are attached by using melted plastic clips. Most of us the upholsterers are afraid of disassembling these parts and wonder how to put them back again.

👉NOTICE: This sample is part of our full course about door panels and customize as OEM.
🔸It is taught how to wrap in leather the two parts of a door panel which are frequently reupholstered: the upper elongated trim and the armrest.

Hello Jurie, In car upholstery and furniture it is used leather or synthetic materials( vinyl, leatherette, fabrics etc.)
Polyester thread size 92 for blind/closing sewings to attach pieces together.
Polyester thread size 138 for 'decorative top stitches'. A thread size 92 can also be used. It is matter of taste.
To clean the glue brushes I use acetone or thinner. Everytime after the brush is used it is advisable to rub it or clean it off with a piece of vinyl or cloth.

Great, Thanks
What is the best number of Needles to go with these Threads?
@@ytr819 Thick threds with thick needles. thread size 138 with a 140=22 to 180=24
Standard upholstery thread size 92 with a 110=18 needle size as a minimum. But thicker needles can be used too. The only disadvantage is that thicker needles make bigger holes in the material.
