Which glue should I sniff?

Post by purple pyramids » Fri Jul 01, 2011 3:25 pm

one of the pads came off my board today.

will kwick grip do the job? says it is "Not suitable for permanently damp or wet areas". so a couple of hours a week is OK?

I've taken to taping the pads to my feet, don't need thongs on the way to the beach, no more ugly wax or deck grip on my board, plus I'm taller now.

Try it.

when you use a contact glue like quick grip, remember to let both surfaces get tacky for about 30 min before bringing them together.
if you just use it like ordinary glue, it wont work.
