Book Reviews of Auto Upholstery & Interiors (HPBOOKS 1265)

Book Review: Very basic, covers too many topics, inadequate detail.
Summary: 1 Stars

This book covers too many topics and does not provide adequate detail on any specific area of auto interiors. For example, the book states that seat foam should be replaced with the proper density foam, but does give any information on density specifications or typical foam types and densities used in auto seats. The book also devotes considerable space to subjects such as: painting, rust treatment, polishing and cleaning. These subjects are too general to be included in a book specific to upholstery and interiors. Many of the photographs are "before and after" pictures which do not aid in explaining methods or techniques. Not recommended for the do-it-yourselfer looking for complete step by step procedures. The book contains only 136 numbered pages.
