550 Seat refurb

<< < (4/5) > >>

Nurse Julie:
I would send it back.

Sesman:
Me too. Unless of course the imperfections are justified, which I’m doubtful.

McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
I agree with the sentiments expressed here, let them try to do the remedial work and do it postage free.

Murf:
I don’t disagree with what you all say,
 I did phone them and the response was, “I think we have done well to get it as good as it is” . When I said I was worried that the sharp bits at the sides would cut through the cover I was told “no they won’t it will be fine” I insisted that I thought they would and got the reply “they won’t but if they do we are always here for you” .  Make of that what you will. 

I have got to point in life where if people can’t do a good job then I can’t really be bothered with them.  I feel people that are capable of doing a good job normally do because that is their standards.   People that don’t,  well that is their standards and you are flogging a dead horse trying to get them to do better.

So as i said I  am going to have a go at it myself.  I am  no seat upholster but I am good at grinding, filling and getting things smooth so we will see.

Good or bad I will post the results but it might be a little while before it’s done.
Thanks for your  views , opinions and suggestions which have been really helpful in making me move forward on from this.

I suppose this is an example of cleaning up a part as well as you can to prepare it for recovering/replating/etc before sending it off to be done by someone else.
It sounds like Leighton's standards have dropped.  😩
