¡Muchas gracias! No es un manual o curso de instrucción. Solo una forma divertida de señalar mis técnicas aprendidas durante 43 años. ¡Gracias por gustarle y vernos!
Between you and Cechaflo, I'm going to be ok! I'm not a professional, but I'm getting good results on my car interior. I figured for the price of a used machine and some good old-fashioned succeeding and failure, I'd be ok! Thank you very much for doing this video. I will be making my sun visors very soon!
Alfonso said it all. We both are going to do fine with our upholstery projects. Thank you Richard. And thanks for your reply to me today. It meant so much to me. Fred.
Or...if you dont want to spend a thousand dollars for a professional sewing machine and not know how to use it, you can just pay this guy to do it for you.😂
Most jobs you need a heavy sewing machine for, you can do with an awl and some leather. It's a matter of what kind of finish you want, and if you're willing to invest the time to get it right.
Your video really helped me ...thank you so much....but you didn't list your products and where to buy? Where can I buy the foam board that I will use as a pattern? That information would really help. Love your channel.
Hello Cecilia, I get my materials from the same supplier for 43 years. Keyston Bros. They have several locations in the USA and they ship! Sorry, no Amazon links and nothing sponsored here, I pay for everything. Please keep liking and watching!
I first saw your driver's seat repair and now an EXCELLENT job on the sunvisor! You make it look so easy. I will take your advice by getting extra inches added to block the sun better across the bottom edge. You are the man Rudolph. Thank you.
Hi Larry! WHen I make the visors for my personal vehicles, I do add more. Especailly because my wife is shorter and the sun is always in her eyes. Thanks for the kind words and please keep watching
Just discovered your channel recently! Love your content, very easy listening/watching. Would love to start getting into upholstering! Keep up the good work mate!!
You are certainly a master of your craft! Very professional, and that was a clear, and concise video. I reupholstered the head liner in my car with excellent results, but didn’t want to attempt the visors. I may get in touch with you if you are interested. I would be more than happy to send them along with the extra material.
I really appreciate the kind words. I still think that the sun visors you can do. Or seek help from someone in your area. Shipping costs are rediculous now.
Hi, loved the video. I’m going to redo my husbands truck visors. Can I do this with a regular sewing machine? If so what type of needles do I need. and what foot ? thinking walking foot? Thanks
Hello Crafty, Thank you so much! I think if your machine lift is high enough for the thick visor to fit under, not sure about the needles as I never use a home machine. A walking foot is always helpful. Please keep liking and watching!
@Old School Auto Upholstery Techniques was going to make a Joke but didn't think we had that kind of back and forth yet lol. I've watched a lot of your videos. I've done a few repairs myself using your video as a guide. I hand sew the repair which is time consuming. Thanks for the content
So nicely done! 🙂👍🏻 Thanks a lot. We have an old car which had flimsy sunvisors. I wanted our local upholsterer to do precisely what you did but he turned me away. Looks like I’ll do whatever I can (taking the template, cutting it to dimensions and folding) and give it for the final stitching to some competent guy. Thanks a lot for the video.
Is that the lead singer of Journey? What the heck is he doing UA-cam videos on upholstery bro !??!!! Ohhhh what the hell was his namew again ? Damn it , I forgot but he was good back in the day . My man fell apart
@@oldschoolautoupholstery That's it !!! Steve Perry, it has been a long time ! He must have been doing upholstery as a hobby or a side hustle or something
When I was viewing the thumbnail poses, I thought it was pretty funny too. So I included them at the end for an extra bonus to those who didn't click away.
Question sir, how do the illuminated vanity mirrors that some cars have (like my 78 Cadillac Coupe deVille has) how do they come off, separate from the visor? Good video
Hello Edgar, Thank you so much for saying so! Usually for visors with lighted mirrors, I just start prying to see how things come apart. It's that easy. Please keep liking and watching!
Hello Peter, Thank you so much! If you don't want a stitch, you can just use contact adhesive glue, not the stuff in the spray can. The stitching will keep things tighter though. Please keep watching!
1. What we do if we dont have an industry grade sewing machine? 2. I dont like the polyurethan foam on the back. It is this PU foam that go bad on the first place and turns into sticky yucky gueouey. I like the polyethylene foam This is the one that has closed pores.
How can I make some seat covers for for deer season for a 2006 Trailblazer.... Temporary seat cover...... I'm glad I found your videos..... I would like it REAL TREE camouflage.

Hi my question is 96 Cherokee XJ overhead counole The little tip that sticks out that snaps into the clip that is secure as the wiper in place to the roof has broke off my visor My visor is shorter than all the other regular XJ's without counsel mine does have a council how do I put that little nub back on so I can lock my wiper back in I'm afraid cut apart and I haven't been able to find those wipers anymore help please any information will be greatly appreciated thank you so much your video is awesome I'm getting a lot of ideas from watching and I heard you say you can make them any size you want and I ain't a really short
Hello 1Jim, Thank you so much for saying so! As far as the piece that broke off, I would drill out the center and insert a steel pin both sides. Then use super glue to glue it back together, or even plastic weld it. Please keep liking and watching!
@@oldschoolautoupholstery I thought about that when it first happened and I had the the piece in my glove box so when I was able to I was going to repair it My vehicle got stolen it was a mint condition and I got it back a month later and of course well means to say I may have to try another option to repair that thinking maybe just pull apart a full size sun visor out of one of those Cherokee XJ's cut it down and cuz I need to redo the headliner and my visors and do something crazy but I liked your technique wow man I think me being a master certified automotive technician that's my calling this upholstery is definitely your calling I've been watching your videos wow and thank you for getting back to me so rapidly I have a body of mine his name is Paul Martinez we live in in Denver Colorado My buddy Paul and yourself share some of the same crazy zany facial expression keep up the good work my brother and thank you for being you stay safe and helping not only for yourself but for your family and for everyone you come in contact with I started smiling and talking to every morning and everyone I mean everyday I'm probably about four years ago and some people look at me cuz I am crazy and some people thank me cuz tomorrow is not guaranteed and you never know who's life you can affect so enjoy life have fun and I'm more than one thing never let you smile be changed by the world let your smile change the world ciao for now

Saludos desde Argentina provincia de Formosa, localidad El Colorado, anduve buscando un video de este tipo de visera con armaje de hierro y no conseguía
@@oldschoolautoupholstery I've been watching visor videos a lot lately. You are by far the best, conscientious artisan I've seen. I like the hand fold and the knotting the most. Thank you.
@@oldschoolautoupholstery I looked it up. Don't think that's the size, as lower numbers are thicker ( 50,60 are thin and 8, 10 are heavy). But haven't seen those numbers on a spool. 🙃 But I'll look into upholstery thread, whatever the size. Thanks again.
@@patsmith5236 To tell you the truth, for 40 years I never looked at the size. I just knew that the thickness looked right. (Our secret) I just knew the clothing-type thread was much thinner. Just in the last year, people have asked for a size number.
@12:30 May I ask, what glue it is in that spray bottle? I'm updating my sun visors and this film was really helpful. When I disassembled right visor, the chipboard came in 3 pieces, but after this film I realized that the middle part just got disconnected, and actually I need to cut out one piece (not 2 connected in the middle w/another small strip). Thank you very much for this detailed film.
@@oldschoolautoupholstery Hello Sir. I see, so contact glue, I'll look for it next time I replace headliner. I replaced it 1 year ago and exactly, that spray can glue didn't last, it started to come out already. For a meanwhile I'll just put those Rivets Repair Buttons to keep it in better condition. And it is very hard to work w/that can glue, it is very sticky and no way to redo, if you placed in a wrong position. Thank you for the replay.
@@olenaerhardt7725 Hello Olena, You are not alone. Many young people on UA-cam give bad advice about using the 3M Spray adhesives. But learning is doing! Please keep liking and watching!
Thanks for the video sir! I hope to use the techniques you've shown to fix my sun visors, as well as change the fabric type! The process should be the same for Ultrasuede correct? What type of machine is used in your video? I'm unfamiliar with sewing machines
Wow! Thank you for all the kind words. I am sure you will do well in upholstery. I have always used a commercial machine with a walking foot and welt foot attachments. I use a Juki. Please like and subscribe! And always watch until the end!
Oh, Great question! Well, we will always use #342 for the second visor, only because it just flipped because there is a left and right. Just so you all know, It has always been Technique #342
Thank you so much for all the knowledge of your craft, you are sharing!! I am trying to find the chipboard you use to make new sun visor for my truck but so far no luck, it seems no one wants to show on google what is the proper name and thickness of the smooth cardboard that is inside my original sun visor. Do you know all the specs? Thank you so much.

Great job!!! I've watched several videos on how to do this, but your way is so much simpler and cleaner than all those other videos!! LOL, I did an old truck's visors as they were hanging down falling apart in my face. They look terrible, but they weren't in my face anymore!! !! LOL But after watching this, I think I can redo them and make them look decent! A big thanks!!!! Question, what walking foot machine are you using? Looks nice, and you do such a great job with it.

Thanks for another lesson from the master. The old visors from the Trans Am are just cardboard, they will be re-done with chip board. I just replaced the window in a canvas top, I looked for a video from your channel but didn't see one. I took my time since I only had one chance to get it right and smiled when I headed around the last turn and headed down the home stretch. What a teacher you are, professor. Thank you for being an inspiration.
Hello Don, You are so welcome! I love hearing good news like this. It does take courage to dive into something and see it to the end. Just keep going, you can do this over and over again! Thanks for liking and watching!
Just realized that if the backside is flush all around after you glue the material down & fold it over that it can be glued instead of stitched. Just have to use some really good glue so it doesn't separate down the road.

Between you and Cechaflo, I'm going to be ok! I'm not a professional, but I'm getting good results on my car interior. I figured for the price of a used machine and some good old-fashioned succeeding and failure, I'd be ok! Thank you very much for doing this video. I will be making my sun visors very soon!

Most jobs you need a heavy sewing machine for, you can do with an awl and some leather. It's a matter of what kind of finish you want, and if you're willing to invest the time to get it right.

I reupholstered the head liner in my car with excellent results, but didn’t want to attempt the visors. I may get in touch with you if you are interested. I would be more than happy to send them along with the extra material.
I really appreciate the kind words. I still think that the sun visors you can do. Or seek help from someone in your area. Shipping costs are rediculous now.
Hi, loved the video. I’m going to redo my husbands truck visors. Can I do this with a regular sewing machine? If so what type of needles do I need. and what foot ? thinking walking foot? Thanks

@Old School Auto Upholstery Techniques was going to make a Joke but didn't think we had that kind of back and forth yet lol. I've watched a lot of your videos. I've done a few repairs myself using your video as a guide. I hand sew the repair which is time consuming. Thanks for the content
So nicely done! 🙂👍🏻 Thanks a lot. We have an old car which had flimsy sunvisors. I wanted our local upholsterer to do precisely what you did but he turned me away. Looks like I’ll do whatever I can (taking the template, cutting it to dimensions and folding) and give it for the final stitching to some competent guy. Thanks a lot for the video.
I think that is amazing how someone who is in business cant make a sunvisor... Go with someone who has experience! Thanks for watching!
You say flimsy, if it doesn't fold properly the internals might be broken. Check out a wreckers for a replacement.

Question sir, how do the illuminated vanity mirrors that some cars have (like my 78 Cadillac Coupe deVille has) how do they come off, separate from the visor? Good video

Hello Peter, Thank you so much! If you don't want a stitch, you can just use contact adhesive glue, not the stuff in the spray can. The stitching will keep things tighter though. Please keep watching!

@12:30 May I ask, what glue it is in that spray bottle? I'm updating my sun visors and this film was really helpful. When I disassembled right visor, the chipboard came in 3 pieces, but after this film I realized that the middle part just got disconnected, and actually I need to cut out one piece (not 2 connected in the middle w/another small strip). Thank you very much for this detailed film.

I replaced it 1 year ago and exactly, that spray can glue didn't last, it started to come out already. For a meanwhile I'll just put those Rivets Repair Buttons to keep it in better condition. And it is very hard to work w/that can glue, it is very sticky and no way to redo, if you placed in a wrong position. Thank you for the replay.
