You definitely need an air upholstery stapler for your re-upholstery job. Electric will not work as well as air. Air upholstery staplers require an air compressor. If you are just beginning or doing some small jobs, buy a small compressor with a 1 to 4 gallon tank . Just make sure it has pressure up to 90 pounds. Most upholstery staplers run on 80 to 100 pounds of air. The larger a compressors tank the less often the motor needs to run. You need at least a straight hose with quick release couplers at both ends. You best upholstery staple type is a fine wire 7 series. Fine wire upholstery stapes will grab less fabric when fired which will help eliminate pulls in your fabric. The most common sizes of upholstery staples 3/8 for general upholstery ½ inch for upholstery webbing and ¼ for applying fabric on thin wood.
