Occasionally, it is difficult to find a new and original molded foam for a type of vehicle. That is why an upholsterer should resort to some tips to repair the foam in a way it would last for a prudent time.
Perhaps, this VW backrest molded foam is easy to find, but the customer wanted the repair, instead.
This foam was still at the point of being rescued by adding some protection/reinforcement on top and on its reverse side. Fortunately, I have had at hand high density scraps of foam. Otherwise, I would have had to go to a junkyard to find a still good seat foam.
I hope you find these tips useful!

  • I just did something like this a month or so ago. I picked up an inexpensive garment/drapery steamer and used it to clean and 'plump up' the foam before I started reconstruction of it. It rejuvenates the foam, and as a bonus takes away a lot of that 'old car stink'! You can also use it to tighten up the leather (if you have it) afterwards as well.

    • A steamer has many uses... for pseudo 'dry-cleaning' of cloth upholstery or foam, try spraying on something like carpet cleaner, agitate it with a brush (if appropriate), then steam it and immediately suck the liquid out with a shop vac (use a slit attachment on the end of the hose). I've had very good luck with this method on everything from cloth upholstery, to baseball hats, to pizza delivery 'hot bags'. I use the Folex brand of spray carpet cleaner.

    • Asi es, se retapizo como nuevo el asiento. Con respecto a la espuma, lo mejor es reemplazar la pieza por una nueva o en mejor estado. El cliente no pudo conseguir una nueva pieza y me solicitó/ordenó bajo su propio riesgo que lo reparara lo mejor que pudiese quedar. Y si se reparó para que durara unos años mas.
