Following is our eight step guide to using the kit...

Step one: Lay the bag onto a flat surface. Form a seat shape. Apply a slight vacuum. Put the bag into the car, get the driver into the car.

Step two: If you have too many beads, remove bag, remove valve and empty beads. Once the driver is happy with the bead volume, driver out and remove bag.

Step three: With the bag removed from the car, remove the valve. Mix resins. Please refer to instructions for resin ratio's.

Step four: Pour resins into bag. You will see the resins fall into the bottom of bag. Re - fit valve.

Step five: Mix the resins and beads together. The beads will change colour when mixed. Will take 5 - 10mins.

Step six: Form a seat shape again. Make sure you have removed creases, front and back.

Step seven: Put the bag back into the car. Take time to re-position the seat before the driver gets in. Get the driver back in.

Step eight: Make the seat. You can continue to make adjustments for 60mins from mixing.
