Saving Replacement Costs

Sea Doo seat vinyls are very temperamental to repair. This is due to the type of vinyl it is made of and how stretched it is.

Using the baseball stitch gives added strength and holds it tight together while it's filled in and heat welded back together. Colour is then applied while a marine topcoat is followed. The marine topcoat is UV and Chemical resistant.

This ensures a long-lasting repair on the vinyl.

I really recommend staying away from, I guess the best way to say it is Fake Leather furniture. It looks real nice for a little while, then starts to peel or crack and is not repairable.
I have a number of customers buying good quality used leather that last much longer and is better built. The colour and other problem areas can quite often be refinished. Here's some pictures a customer just sent of a set that we refinished for them.

Snowmobile seats can quite often be repaired at a fraction of the price to replace.  Those small cuts and tears can be filled and heat welded back together. Then regrained and recoloured.
