A word of caution on recycling used matress foam... My friend salvaged the covering from a Westfalia bunk (black/green plaid) to make new '76 front seat covers. His upholstry guy would use the material *only* if it was laundered first. Upholstry guy said he knew "what goes on in the back of those VW vans." ;-) HOT TIP: If you have to cut or shape foam, an electric carving knife works really well. > remember my grandparents replacing some foam bedding in their full size RV and > it was real expensive.

The white foam is more for light padding, like armrests and the backs of furniture to make it look puffy. -- Jack '73 Westfalia '82 300CD Costa Mesa, California http://home.earthlink.net/~sunbus/index.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To UNSUBSCRIBE send any e-mail to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To email the admin for list help only: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands send any e-mail to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Donations help keep the list going. http://www.type2.com/donate.html ----------------------------------------------------------------------
