Glue a new peace of foam in place and use the grinder to shape the new foam.Okay thanks. What type of foam should I get? Also I took the old cover off and I’m thinking the entire foam is bad now. The foam is pretty wet looks moldy. Should I just order the new foam made for this seat instead?
Marine vinyl will be best for that seat.

What's the added cost? Can the customer replace the entire seat cheaper than having a new one made? A lot of those seats now have perforated vinyl so they dry out better once they're wet.I have not quoted the job yet, just took it a part first to see what I’m working with. Then price it if I have to replace the entire foam seat. I’ve seen online where they sell just the foam. I did notice the foam was really soaked. I think that came from the person they bought it from had it setting out in the weather. Since it had several rips and tears, the water had a easy was in to the foam. I think if I use a marine vinyl I should be fine. Also they will be storing it inside a garage not out in the elements.

If its just going to be a farmyard machine repair the foam bring it back to life and recover it.Yeah the guy just going to use it on his property for fun, it’s an old 86 Polaris . I’m just letting it dry out right now. If I use this foam, then I would just need to fill the low spots of the seat foam with foam. Then wrap it in marine vinyl then I should be good to go.
