Sorry, but that's the wrong shade of black. Crying or Very sad


Is only 20% gloss

Semigloss is 50%. So go back to sleep Smile


I said "shade", not "sheen". It's not black enough!


could be the flash but is Dark Black NOT Light Black Laughing


Well- all righty, then. Looks good. Time to build a car around it! Smile

Good to know that SMS will do a custom heat seam order.

I like your idea. So what's underneath then? Did you find a box of horsehair somewhere?

You can still buy horsehair pads, they use them in some air conditioning systems as well

Pretty sure that Pedro means that there isn't a second backing to the upholstery material to give it that slight "puff" between heat seams. It's just heat seamed on a flat vinyl piece.
