I can shed some light on the extra foam around the Oregon Aero seats. About a year ago I contacted Oregon Aero about their seats and below is a quote from that message...

" Remember visco-elastic Confor foam will break down if you do not use a protective barrier between the upholstery and the Confor foam. The upholstery rubbing on the Confor foam will cause the foam to breakdown and lose its shape and density. That is why we completely encase our Confor foam cushions with a protective poly foam jacket that we glue right to the Confor foam cores."

Something you might want to keep in mind if you're building your own cushions.

Thanks for that info. I looked up Polyfoam on Google and can anybody tell me (that has purchased their seats from one of the two big seat companies) -- is the Polyfoam the stuff that is white/clear in color, maybe 1/8", used to wrap fragile things and looks a lot like the stuff you put on the floor before you put a laminent fake wood floor down (like Pergo)? I'm making my own and want to do it right. Thanks. Dave

Here's a good resource for polyfoam...

Excellent site, but I still don't know what it looks like? I think and hope it might look like the whitle/clear thin stuff place under Pergo flooring? If that's the case, I have some and will use it. Any pictures or confirmations out there? Thanks.

The PolyFoam used is just thin Furniture Upholstery Foam. I have an Oregon Aero Soft Seat Cushion. I took some pictures this morning of the wrap material. You can start to see the blue and pink foam color through the outer jacket.

Michael. Thanks for your continued efforts to help me "look" at the material. The two links provided said "Forbidden" when I tried to open them? I don't know why? Any other thoughts? Is anybody else having difficulty? Normally I have no problem opening up links. Take care. Dave

For some reason when I sent the last reply, it opened up the pictures. So, I got them. Thanks again. Dave

You've obviously never seen "Mars Attacks"! Rent it and buy some beer to drink while watching!
