Dacron
Dacron is a material that is used to wrap cushions for to create a sharper and fulfilled appearance. Serving as an upholstery padding, Dacron is wrapped around cushions to hide imperfections and uneven areas in the cushions surface. The result is a cushion that is wrinkle-free and has a rounded a softer look.
Polyester batting (also called Dacron) should be added to any foam surface so that it will not be exposed directly to the fabric.
In the SANDWICH METHOD
a spray adhesive, such as Camie 303 is carefully applied to the foam. After it tacks up (30-60 seconds) the glued surface of the foam is placed on a slightly larger piece of Dacron. Use a scissors to trim. If the foam is for use in a two sided cushion, repeat the process on the other side, creating a “sandwich” with foam in the middle and Dacron on either side. The advantage of this method is that it is quick and easy, but it will require the purchase a good spray adhesive. Also it should be noted that this configuration, when placed inside a cushion cover will create a more square look since Dacron will not cover the sides.
In the GLUED METHOD
Dacron is wrapped around a piece of foam leaving three sides open. These are then closed with a carefully placed line of Camie 303 spray adhesive. This method is illustrated in the very popular book, Singer Upholstery Basics.
Finally there is the STAPLED METHOD
where Dacron is wrapped around a piece of foam and then stapled together on the open ends. You can use an ordinary desk stapler, or to make it easier, you can use a scissors stapler such as the Stanley Bostitch type which use a crowned B-8 staple. Because the staple is nestled down into the plush Dacron, it is in no danger of catching finger or fabric.

I got the Mybecca Quilt Batting to put on the back of my dining chairs before adding new chair covers, and it worked out great! The perfect size and gives my dining chairs a new, full padded look. Highly recommend for anyone looking to refresh their furniture with ease!

Worked out well for diy bench cushion cover. Prevented wrinkling on the cover fabric.

This isn’t the best quality but usable for my purpose. Initially came very wrinkled but after putting in the dryer low heat with a damp towel, a lot of the wrinkles came out. Still not great but ok enough to use now

Wish I did this sooner. The couch cushions look so much better and not wrinkled after sitting on. If your couch looks sad this will really help.

The price I liked. The quality was not what I need. It is unevenly made and that not good for quilts. I have to double it to make it work. So my 19 yards is only 5 yards.

Poorly shipped. Folded - not rolled.. many creases. Foam was 1/2†thick on one end and 1/4†thick on other. end. Low quality. NOTE: this item is very good quality. I inadvertently reviewed a different item.
