Seat burn

Post by Merzbow »

Ok, don't ask my how this happened but there is a new cigarette burn hole on my driver's seat and I don't smoke! I don't think anyone else smokes that has ridden in my car since has smoked either!Anyways, how do I solve this problem or is there no way to?

I know of an upholstery place on Mound Rd. They claim to fix seat burns and sometimes the sign out front states it as a reminder. I do not have the name or mile rd it is near but can get it. In the summer they always have cars out front they have done work on.

You think they would charge like $500 for a tiny burn tahts like half inch in diameter?I'm sure it's a burn becuase it's through the fabric on top and sperfetly round and the edges of the hole are hard and rough like a burn. I'll take a pic of it when I get home.

If you're very patient and willing to read through all the instructions you can get great results with these repair kits. Word to the wary though - if you get impatient and try to wing it you can also make a huge mess with these repair kits.
