Repairing or replacing a burn hole in a car seat?
Many people immediately think of replacing the entire upholstery when they see a burn hole. In practice, however, this is usually not necessary.
Having a burn hole repaired is often the best choice:
Much cheaper than a replacement
Practically invisible result
Prevents further damage or fraying
Can be carried out quickly (usually within 30 to 90 minutes)
The sooner you have the burn hole repaired, the better the end result.
How does a burn hole form in a car seat?
Burn holes are caused by direct exposure of the upholstery to heat. Car seats made of fabric are particularly susceptible to this.
Common causes:
Cigarettes or cigars
Hot ash or sparks
Hot objects such as a lighter
Overheating or friction
Even brief contact can lead to permanent damage.
