Bonded for eternity?

The only thing I've had with a "do not remove" tag had at least the added "except consumer", so I was able to cut it off without being subject to fine or imprisonment.
"Do not attempt to repair or replace", though... that might make sense for an electronic item or something, but a seat?
I'd also love to know what kind of cushion you used.

Elektra is of the opinion that these tags are there to protect consumers from finding exotic wildlife in their furniture...
Given that the original might have been made in Borneo.

Elektra's probably right.
I just left the old cushion in place and stapled a piece of dark blue corduroy over it (it was originally black with an orangey-red backrest)

Hoh nos.
removal of the carefully crafted, expertly designed, solar invigered, scientifically bispoke, tempered, screen-washed, acid resistant, stain resistant, polypropanine, composite, dust/mite proof, origional cover can, as I thought everyone would know, release the dust bunnies from their captivity whereapon they can render all abouts and expressly spread their dusty evilness to hithertoo un-dusty-eviled places.
Or, at least I think* that was wat the bloke I met tt the pub said.
