@Bondo497 Haha you where right. I was off making videos when you guys were having that crazy conversation about sewing through plastic

@John,

Hey guys give John a hand that was an AMAZING video! I have been staring at my visors forever wondering how I would ever recover them.

Thanks John!!!

[John]

Thanks guys!

The final result has been awesome!!! I have commented in the videos on Youtube, but I have to say again that you have been very patient to be able to remove the sunvisors without destroying them... it's not easy and cheap to upholster a car, and this is a very good example of what it takes to do it properly

@Leather Johnny, are you going to do some in leather?

[John]

Thanks @LeatherJohnny Im really , really happy to hear how much you liked the video! Thanks for the YT comments!

[LeatherJohnny]

You're welcome, and at the moment I don't intend to upholstery some sunvisors, but I like to see professionals working in as many project as I can because it helps me to get ideas to accomplish other things that need the same procedures

About upholstering some in leather, they would look great but I'm sure that they would need to have the sides thinned/skinned?, because if not, the result would not look as awesome as John's ones

@LeatherJohnny

A lot more work goes into crafting with leather eh Johnny.

[LeatherJohnny]

Yessss!!!! My first project (car seats) and some others have all been with leather and I am getting used to the difficulties that it involves (but with lots of problems to get things right ) and after having seen others working with fabrics or other materials, even vinyl, I see that it does not seem to be as demanding as leather, and much less expensive to fix a problem or repeat a panel that has gone south!

@LeatherJohnny

I will keep my hands off the leather for a while

[LeatherJohnny]

@BigRig

Having seen your work, I'm sure that you would have no problems working with leather and when you do it you will see that it's not as bad as it seems!
