    Unruly Nautolex Vinyl, Hatches, and #88 Adhesive (pics)

    Well the #88 adhesive did pretty good on the large flat areas of the hatches for my boat, but when it came times to roll and secure the edges it wasn't worth a flip. I tried clamping them, I tried taping them, I tried clamping and taping them and it aint a workin' and it aint a gonna work!!! I...

    Nautolex Vinyl, 88 Adhesive, and Sealer/Primer?

    As some on here already know, I'm going to be installing Nautolex vinyl on my boat decking and have a few questions. 1. The 88 adhesive instructions say that I should seal my wood to prevent moisture absorption from the adhesive. I'm going to use Spar Urethane (exterior grade) for this, the...

    '97 Tracker Pro Deep V Facelift

    I've been taking my Tracker apart and ripping carpet off of decking for the past few day and thought I'd post some pics.

    For all of those that have installed Nautolex vinyl on their decks. How slick is the regular vinyl deck covering when it gets wet? Does it get slicker in cold weather?

    Making money on restoring tinnies?

    I know an old guy that lives on the lake and he has 4 or 5 tinnies (pack rat) between 12-16' and they all need work. I'm sure I can talk him out of 2 or 3 them for cheap, especially if I say something about buying them in front of his wife.;) They all need new decks, carpet/vinyl, probably...
