Why Dacron Wadding Belongs in Your Workroom
When a cushion looks flat or a headboard feels hard at the edges, dacron wadding is often the fix. This soft polyester wadding adds loft, smooths out lumps and gives upholstery a rounded, professional finish. It is lightweight and easy to cut, which makes it a staple for upholsterers, quilters and weekend DIYers alike.
Popular Uses
- Foam wrap: Wrap seat foam to fill out fabric covers and soften crisp corners.
- Furniture padding: Layer over chair backs, arms and headboards for extra comfort.
- Quilting and crafts: Use as polyester batting for quilts, placemats and soft toys.
What to Look For
Loft and Weight
Thinner upholstery wadding suits tight, tailored covers, while thicker options deliver a plump, cushioned look. Match the loft to how full you want the finished piece to feel.
Width and Roll Length
Measure your project first, allowing extra to wrap around edges and staple underneath, so you can choose a width that minimizes seams.
