    Soooo to get past the staple issue.... If the kerfs are on the foam padding side of the seat just glass that side and leave the back bare. If the kerfs are on the other side leave about 2-3" around the perimeter bare for staples and glass the rest. Then treat the bare wood. Thats one o those...
