So I was in the fabric store searching for my knitting supplies, when I found this microsuede. Grabbed an old seat and some adhesive and gave it a whirl. This is a quickie ten minute job, So I think I could perfect this with the right seat and a few more tries.

I am doing some research on hot stamping and foil stamping. If anyone has had this done please send some info my way.

Someone at rad did a HLT seat some time ago.

I think he used a thin layer of foam, as you lightget wrapped round a hi fi component - to provide a tiny bit of the "cushion" between the suede and the saddle.
