Another way to approach and cover in leather a car seat plastic piece. I have used burgundy color, 1.2 mm thick automotive leather. As explained before I have taken advantage of 'stretchy side' of leather. Besides, to improve the stretching I have used a 'special liquid softener' to somehow soften the fibers of this strong material. The 'narrow pocket' was molded by doing some cuts in its corner then joined with 'carpenter's glue'. This pocket could be done in one piece if softened enough and shaped on a hard mold.
The main idea on this process is try to not force the leather material onto lower areas, otherwise it could unstick because of tension. It should be glue down as gently as possible. It is advisable to apply two coats of glue. The first one acts as a primer. The plastic should be sanded off to get a better adherence of glue.
I have used a 'polyurethane transparent glue' to attach the pocket to plastic piece inside. As we can see, it can be activated with some hot air after being dry. Yellow contact cement for the other parts.
I hope you find this information useful!

There is one thing that is always guaranteed with upholstery, its never quick!
Perfect workmanship. You clearly take pride in your work as the backside of this trim is just as neat tidy clean and perfect as the face side of the trim. This kind of pride and skill level are very rare in today’s society
I think this video serves as a good example of why some jobs are reserved for professionals

Exactly! How good did the back of piece look 👀 it was super neat tidy and clean even though no one will ever see it aside from in this video. True skill workmanship and pride very rare in today’s society. I bet you that people with not even half the skill or pride would actually charge twice as much and big note themselves of social media vs this legend.

Hello Radek, Interesting point of view! Actually, not an easy task if we do not follow certain procedures, such as to take advantage of stretchy side of leather, the use of the 'special softener', the two times application of yellow glue on plastic material, the other transparent glue that is activated with heat letting us to position the pocket in place, etc. As always, welcome to this channel anytime!

Estimado José, En realidad el oficio de la tapicería abarca muchos campos: muebles de oficina y casa, interiores de carros, colchones, asientos de moto, volantes de carro, fundas para proteger artefactos electrodomésticos, lonas para negocios, lonas para autos, camiones, techos convertibles, fabricación de cortinas, tapizado de aviones, botes, fabricación de bolsas, mochilas, etc. Hay maestros que se especializan en un campo y encuentran un medio de trabajo continuo. Por ejemplo, hay maestros que se especializan en asientos de moto y solamente hacen eso. Suficiente para generar buenos ingresos. Hay otros que forran puros volantes/timones de carro y otros. Otros maestros solamente se dedican hacer lonas/toldos para motos, autos y camiones. Hay otros que solo tapizan muebles de oficina, etc. En conclusión podemos decir que si funcionarí especializarse en un campo y no tratar de abarcar todo. ¡Muchas gracias por ver estos videos!

Hello, You could get it in the stores where shoemakers buy their products. If difficult to find it I have a personal formula that could replace it:kzread.info/dash/bejne/pGWMldWMmsnNp5c.html Notice: the application is just on the wrong side of leather material.

Utilizé dos clases de pegamento. Utilizé el pegamento transparente 'plastigon' para pegar la bolsita en el hueco. Este pegamento es el mismo que usan los zapateros para pegar zapatos, tenis, etc. es muy fuerte. Se aplica, se deja secar unos cinco minutos y tiene la propiedad que nos permite acomodar las piezas sin que se pegue, a menos que le apliquemos un poco de calor con la secadora de pelo y rescien se activa. Si uno quiere puede dejarlo de un dia para otro en el caso de pegar tenis. Al otro dia lo calienta un poco y no hay quien lo despegue. El otro pegamento es el de base solvente amarillo marca sigma 2000. Su secado es de 10 a 15 minutos y luego se adhiere. Al plástico le pasé dos capas. La primera como base para que tenga mejor adherencia. ¡Muchas gracias por ver estos videos!
