Lovely voice Eric and awesome narrating . I am afraid of power tools but seeing Cindy reupholster the chair makes me feel confident that a lady can operate the tools easily . Great video .

Excellent instructional video.

Thank you for explaining so well. I will use Sailrite called Ultraleather when I redo my teak chairs.

Can pnematic stapler be rented anywhere

Do you have to remove the old vinyl before recovering

Can I ask If the vinyl fabric has a grain line? that I should consider about it to make chair seat cover? Because I feel kind of one direction give(expand?) more and the other less.....or Maybe I just feel...

Yes, most faux leather or seating vinyl fabrics have a grain or pattern that runs randomly along the length and width of the fabric. In most situations that grain is not a factor in determining how a vinyl will be applied to an application, but rather what saves the most fabric. It is true, when a grain direction is finally determined (along the width or length) it is typically the followed as the rule for the whole project, just incase it is seen or visible by the end user.

Thanks for the instructions, very helpful. One quick question: can I recover the vinyl chair with fabric straight over the top of the vinyl thats already there? I'm worried that the fabric will slide and stretch over the vinyl and won't last as long, plus not sure on condition of foam underneath although it feels spingy. I like to do a job properly and have offered to cover 6 chairs for free (charity shop that provides for people in need and works with a church) so they can get a good price for the dining set. There is a carpenter on hand to help with removing old staples (loads of them) as my hands can't do it anymore and have a good staple gun to re staple the new top. Sorry for such a long message, sometimes fixate on details, can you tell? Would love some advice. Thanks

Hi Victoria, That is not the preferred method, but it can work in some instances. I probably wouldn't do it in your case since it would be vinyl on vinyl.

@@SailriteDIY thanks so much, will definitely do it properly now, just needed some encouragement to tackle all the staples and hidden mystery inside the foam.

Price? Expect to pay for 4 chairs? Material + labor =?

Could you sew a dart in the corners first for a cleaner look?

Yes, that could be done.

Exercise

Worst corners I have seem. Just recovered four chairs with absolutely no creases in the front corners.

Like somebody will actually spend an additional $250 on that foam saw...for 2 chairs

I would probably use a turkey cutting electric knife from a department store if you only cutting foam for two chairs.

I think this particular job was rather sloppy especially the corners. Lots of puckers.

Looked better before

This doesn't look as a great job. Those corners are bad

Good video. Hate to be a critic but that stapling is ugly.

Sorry, but this is a very sloppy approach. Need to be more refined with proper angles.
