How to Reupholster an RV Sleeper Sofa Seat

Описание: Giving new life to an old jack knife sofa is easy with help from Sailrite. In this video, we’ll show you how to reupholster the seat portion of this pull-out jack knife sofa from start to finish — from replacing the foam to attaching the cover to the metal frame. This is an easily customizable project. We’re adding a fabric pull and decorative pleats to help keep the fabric in place when an occupant sits on the sofa. Let’s get started!
