Coat repair includes fixing ripped or missing buttons, mending tears and patching holes. Many Taskers also offer alterations on coats, especially jackets and vests, such as taking in seams, altering the sleeves, or shortening the waistcoat.
Lining replacement on coats is a common service that is essential for ensuring your outerwear keeps you warm during winter. Replacing the lining is much like sewing up a hole, but it requires more skill and tools to ensure an inconspicuous repair. Your Tasker will remove the lining from your coat, clean and prepare it for a patch using gear tape or tenacious tape, then add the new lining. They’ll make sure the new lining is snug and smooth, and that it matches the original finish of your coat or jacket.
Your clear coat is your car’s first line of defense against damage, protecting the underlying paint and primer layers from abrasions, weathering, and chemical wear. If this protective layer is damaged, it will deteriorate quickly and expose the metal body of your vehicle to rust and corrosion. This is why it’s important to have it repaired immediately.
Clear coats are made of acrylic or urethane plastic, and they’re designed to be durable. However, they’re not immune to wear and tear, so over time the top layers may begin to peel. This is usually the result of physical abrasions to the paint, such as rock chips or dings from road debris. If you don’t address the problem, it can spread, causing further damage and costing you more money in repairs.
Preventing the damage is the best solution, but it can be difficult to do for long coated breeds, such as Shih Tzus or Yorkies. In these situations, it’s necessary to use a shampoo that can help rebuild the cortex and replace lost proteins. Thick N Thicker Volume Response is a great product that can help. It adds back the lost pigment and strengthens weakened hair strands, while also helping to prevent split ends.
