Keep it a squid free zone for awhile ? New Regupol Deck.

A quick hint on the glue, put the tub in the freezer for a half hour or so before mixing it up. This will give you a bit extra tool time as this stuff goes off quick.

Does it go down ok on a checker plate deck? Not that keen on gluing down either but if it was sealed off then I guess it would be ok.

Tx for the tip Ron. I might end up getting more and glue down crossways to cover the lot. Dunno yet.

Hey Alchemy i got no idea, if i had to guess probably not the 3mm stuff i used with all the ups and downs on checker BUT have seen pics used on a big Noble which might be a checker plate deck its covering. 4mm prob more of a chance but prob best ring them.

The dream for everyone is no gluing isnt it...press studs another option for carpet and likely could do with this stuff too. Maybe those 3M dual lock fasteners that have a w/proof sticky back and act like velcro might be worth a try. Lots of deck partitions/lids/hatches makes it impossible either way without glue.

If you get home and wash/clean up then back it into a shed/garage, the bloody carpet never seems to dry out properly...and i'm not into lifting and dealing with heavy slabs of wet carpet when there's beers in the fridge. If i need to glue it down so be it.

Looks pretty good. May be an option for my boat and I am lucky that there is a big engine on my deck so width isnt an issue. Is there any suppliers around Brisbane or anywhere I can see a sample?

Hi
I don't wear shoes in the boat so was wondering if anyone knows how hot it gets underfoot.

G'day

I know when "Captain seaweed" was looking at it for his noble, they posted him out a sample or two. Maybe worth contacting the distributor. As for heat, I've only been on his (a dark color) when detailing the boat a few times, and i never noticed any heat with it.

My previous boat had the carpet held down with canopy posts (little plastic posts with a metal flipper) in each corner, they were glued down with a structural adhesive and never gave any problems.
I'm sure the adhesive would work with studs & buttons too, damned strong stuff.

[GBC]

I don't know how it would go unfixed or just buttoned down. As with all recycled rubber products it is just granules bonded back together which is magnificent in compression, not so great in tension.
It is common as horsesh!t in highrises because it's about the cheapest thing that gets you over the line for accoustic value.
I'll be stripping a few hundred sqare metres out of Kings Row tower at Milton soon, but it won't be good for anything once the mechanical stripper is finished with it.

[TREVELLY]

Regupol talked me out of the dark stuff - said it gets too hot.

I am pleased they did as i have heard this from more than one place since.

I will glue mine down.

One thing Marty made a point of on his instal is that the floor must be totally flat as it shows up a lot any lumps or bumps.
