Yes, you can!
Repairing your own Acapulco chair can be a rewarding DIY project, especially if you have some patience and a few basic tools. These iconic Silla Acapulco chairs, known for their woven designs and vibrant colors, are popular in the United States, but they sometimes need a bit of care due to wear on the PVC cords or frame. Here’s a guide to tackling the most common issues so you can enjoy your Silla Acapulco chair for years to come.
If you have a broken or worn PVC cord, you’ll need a durable replacement cord, such as our high-quality PVC cords or another option of your choice. Start by carefully removing the damaged cord. It’s essential to remember the unique weaving pattern as you go, so take photos or make sketches for guidance. Once the old PVC cord is removed, start weaving the new cord in the same pattern, ensuring it’s tight and evenly spaced. This may take some time, but the result will be well worth it and extend the life of your Silla Acapulco. Here are a few video tutorials that might be helpful.
To fix a broken PVC cord, you can try simply melting the ends of the broken PVC cords back together with a lighter. Here’s a quick video showing you how:
If the frame of your Silla Acapulco chair is damaged, you may need to consider welding it or having it professionally repaired. For rusty spots, treat them with a rust remover, then apply a new coat of rust-resistant paint to protect the frame, especially if you’re in the United States, where weather can vary greatly and affect outdoor furniture.
By taking the time to repair your Silla Acapulco chair, you’ll not only save money but also extend the life of a stylish and comfortable piece of furniture.
