hi all

i am wondering what type of self adhesive film is used on EVA foam (pro grip) and where i may be able to get some from. I believe it comes as a large double sided sheet, but it is water proof which is why i'm after it.

does anybody know who manufactures "pro grip" as sold by p&b, sailboats.co.uk e.t.c. so i may be able to ask them.

cheers

Progrip is manufactured by Algeos, and is a product called 'Lunasoft' iirc, I cant help you with the self adhesive bit im afraid.

I've always used Evostick Time Bond. It's a very strong contact adhesive. It is not available 'off the self' but big DIY stores should have it. It will be in a locked box because of the high solvent levels.

Ring them first.

It's messy, but it works VERY effectively.
