Wood 1015 Spot Repair I: HOM Furniture visits DCTC to demonstrate spot repair technique

Three past Grads from NIWF who now work for HOM Furniture came in today to share some of their repair techniques with us and talk a bit about life in the field. They demonstrated burn-in techniques to fill and repair scratches, a flocking technique to repair micro-fibre and leather and vinyl repair as well. It was an interesting visit, the students got to see many different techniques for simulating wood grain & matching color, and they were introduced to some new tools as well.



It is always gratifying to see past students become the professionals and to watch them teach the new group of future pros!
