Steps follow to replace a car seat upholstery:

Before upholstery any car seat the are some steps you need to follow that will make you achieve a clean work. I will use photos to discribe some of my steps.

Hello friend :) I'm amazed with your work, the results are incredible. This trade requires knowledge of sewing and some mechanics to be able to disassemble these seats and return them to their original shape.

Thank you for sharing this project, beautiful and quality as always. Congrats ❣️.
