Frequently Asked Questions

What is Plain Straight Gimp used for?

Plain Straight Gimp is used to cover tacks, staples, and raw edges on upholstered furniture, giving a clean, professional finish to chairs, sofas, ottomans, and headboards.

How is upholstery braid and gimp attached?

Braid and gimp is typically attached using upholstery gimp pins, fabric glue, or a hot melt glue gun. Apply to edges after completing the main fabric work for a neat finish.
