The Upholstery Forum

Hello,thanks for reading....want to redo my old recliner seat from my large lazboy i got 20 years ago.Havent used in about 10 years due to seat needing repair.Willing to give it a go but need to find out what a few specific parts are called.First the blue material,what is this fabric actually called?upholstery fabric?,second there is a ground up material made into a pad with a black backing,no idea what to call this,seen in car floors before but surely not the same...and lastly I have been trying to find the replacement spring holders,do see the the long wavy springs online but not the holders except on ebay used,but I do not have an ebay account,are they for sale new somewhere?

The springs are called no-sag springs.
Not sure what that black material is.
For fabric you can use any material you like. Its doubtful that you would be able to find an exact match.

I have this gaming office chair that I've had for 2 or 3 years that I bought from here, but the seat cushion has gone flat and is uncomfortable compared to its original state. I'm unsure what's inside it, but I think it's memory foam. I think That is an issue all chairs suffer. Over time, the foam gets compressed and/or shifts to the sides. Does anybody have a solution?

The black fabric looks like "cambric" it's a breathable synthetic fabric to keep dust from falling down under the chair and to give the underside a finished look.

The black fabric look like what we call dust cover

I have seen spring holders like this before. When I was missing on I simply cut a piece of sheet metal,, folded it in two and drilled holes to attach the spring on one end and a screw to the wood on the other. Most any light metal you can find, Home Depot etc., will work. If you want to get fancy after folding the metal in two put it in a vise with the spring inserted and clamp down to form a area for the spring to sit.

sailrite has a lot of supplies as well my two main go to is Albrights or sailrite albrights is a faster delivery. i usually get it next day if ordered before 3

I have watched some videos that steam the foam to bring it back to life and have more volume. Do not know how long that last ., haven't tried it yet.

Steam works well to reinflate the foam, but it does not fix erosion of foam.

You're restoring your old La-Z-Boy recliner and need help identifying a few parts:
