The Upholstery Forum

Hello,

I'm in the process of trying to reupholster some dining chairs. I'm trying to keep costs down and wondered whether it would be sensible to use [url]weed control fabric[https://www.wickes.co.uk/Weed-Control-L ... l/p/160172] as an alternative dust cover fabric ("cambric").

This is not the heavy duty type but rather is quite thin - fairly similar (I think) to typical dust cover fabric.

I have a couple of unopened rolls of this stuff, so opening one will avoid needing to buy dust cover fabric (which seems to be quite expensive and unfortunately Dunelm no longer stocks it). On the other hand, I'd be keen on shifting the unused rolls and would rather avoid removing the packaging material if it isn't suitable, since it will likely make it more difficult to shift.

Does anyone have an opinion as to whether this would be OK? Thanks!

i guess it depends , if they are yours and they are not going to be used much. dust covers can tear easily , thats why they are on the bottom of furniture!
redid a couch recently the dust cover had holes in it from a cat playing under it scratching at the dust cover.

Dust cover material can be cloth and $5/yard or lightweight plastic fabric at $0.50/yard.

It’s only function is to keep debris from aging material from falling on the floor.

And from food, gum etc getting onto the framework under the chair. It is also cosmetic as the look of crisp dust cover fabric with a uniform row of staples ads to the professionalism of our work.

Additionally, it addresses issues of food, gum, etc., accumulating on the framework under the chair.
