Dining chair reupholstery aur seat replacement (jaise foam ya fabric badalna) ek acha DIY project hai jo purane chairs ko bilkul naye jaisa bana deta hai. Yeh kaam ghar pe bhi ho sakta hai, bas thoda patience aur basic tools chahiye.
Basic Steps for Dining Chair Reupholstery & Seat Replacement (Simple Guide)
- Chair Seat Remove Karo Chair ko ulta karo aur screws ya bolts se seat cushion ko frame se alag kar lo (screwdriver ya drill use karo).
- Purana Fabric aur Staples Hatao Seat ko ulta rakho. Staple remover ya flat screwdriver se purane staples, tacks aur old fabric ko carefully nikaalo. Dust cover (neeche ka thin fabric) bhi hata do. Photos le lo har step ke, taaki naye fabric lagate waqt pattern samajh aaye.
- Padding/Foam Check aur Replace Karo (Seat Replacement Part) Agar foam purana, sagging ya damaged hai to naya foam lagao (usually 2-3 inch thick high-density foam best hai).
- Old foam ya wood base ko template ki tarah use karke naya foam cut karo (electric carving knife best kaam karta hai).
- Foam ke upar batting ya Dacron padding lagao for softness.
- Glue ya spray adhesive se fix karo.
- Naya Fabric Cut Karo Purane fabric ko template ki tarah use karke naya upholstery fabric cut karo (thoda extra margin rakho stapling ke liye, 3-4 inch). Pattern match karo agar printed fabric hai.
- Naya Fabric Attach Karo Seat ko ulta rakho (fabric face down). Center se shuru karke opposite sides pe staple gun se fabric ko wood base pe staple karo. Corners pe neatly pleat ya fold karo (rounded corners ke liye technique seekh lo videos se). Fabric tight rakho lekin zyada tight nahi warna shape bigad sakta hai.
- Dust Cover Lagao Neeche black cambric ya dust cover staple kar do for clean finish.
- Seat Wapas Attach Karo Screws se chair frame pe wapas laga do.
Tools Jo Chahiye
- Screwdriver/drill
- Staple gun + staples
- Staple remover
- Scissors/fabric cutter
- Foam cutter (electric knife)
- Upholstery fabric (durable like cotton blend, velvet, linen)
- Foam + batting
Yeh process 1-2 ghante per chair lagta hai agar pehli baar kar rahe ho.
