Making the Right Choice for Seat Covers (When you have kids)

Kids love playing during car trips. You car's seat covers get a lot of abuse—from food stains to tears. Your car's interiors aren't children-proof at all times and unfortunately, when the damage is too grave, you'll need to have them re-upholstered. Re-doing your auto upholstery can set you back a bit but leaving holes and tears will only lead to further damage and risks for everyone inside the car. When you have kids, having an extra set of seat covers is recommended.

Choosing auto upholstery when you have kids requires enormous consideration for the fabric or material. It has to be easily washable or should at least be water and stain proof so you won't have to clean the seat covers every so often.

Here is a list of recommended auto upholstery materials that are practical:

• Polyester and Nylon- These are the common fabrics used in making seat covers due to its strength. Polyester is ideal for cars that are usually exposed to the sun (no covered garage or open parking lots). Plus, it is resistant to common chemicals, mold, and mildew. On the other hand, seat covers made with nylon are very easy to sew. These seat covers are similarly tough and can be combined with polyester for more strength. In auto upholstery, it is common to match the seat covers with the car interior, the color, the fabric, or the material.

• Wool- Wool is a rare material used for seat covers; most auto upholstery shops discourage the use of wool due to its sensitivity to spills and other liquid agents. However, wool may be used in custom upholstery for show vehicles and other commercial purposes.

• Leather- leather is now a trend for auto seat covers. A variety of design and types is offered for you to choose from. Most car interiors are easily matched with leather because of its durability. Plus, it is easier to clean and has lesser incidence of protruding strings.

Whether if it's for practicality of for show, your car's seat covers has a definite purpose. Making the right choice of material is not a tasking job but maintaining it should be at the back of your mind. If you've got kids, pets, or both, thinking of what seat covers need to withstand should be at the top of your checklist.
