Looks good! The more I see the Sears stuff the less I want to put up the money for real hydroturf.

By the time you buy two quarts, you could buy a gallon. I just buy a gallon and save the leftovers.

I'll ask again, but has anyone actually had hydro turf and then this? That would actually recommend it over hydro?

Of course the hydro turf is better but check the price out. I have a buddy wit the hydro an it's nice but he paid for it. I went wit sears stuff an will continue to use sears stuff. It took 80$ to do my boat an have put threw the test this season an no problems.

The hydro better in every way other than price. It hold up better the material Is tuffer than sears stuff. But for the price if something does fuk up I can spend 20 on a sheet n fix. It still looks new in my boat an I ran it almost everyday of season. Jus has like two bubbles in it from where I didn't put enough glue down but don't bother me none

I have HT in my last two boats. I just recently purchased a new boat and will be using the sears stuff b/c I don't want to spend $400 on the real stuff. I will post some finished pics and let you know how it holds up.

Post Re: Sears "hydroturf" install
Saw this thread 3 days ago. Today I finished my version of a homemade Triton Bass-N-Bay. Lots of prep and work but worth it. Holds up good if you do it right. The little strip of carpet in back is getting spray on bed liner cause I don't want foam sticking up above the lids. It will keep the deck flush. I'll wright a review after a couple fishing trips this weekend.

What did you all use to glue the foam down? It is in the 50's where I live and I would use contact cement but it requires it to be 65 minimum, so I am looking for something else that would be as effective. Thanks

Contact cement. Wait til it warms up.

I don't think so. Was fairly cool when I put mine in. Low 50's. doesn't say anything on the can about temp. Just says wait a minute or two before bonding, so the glue gets tacky. It's holding it together real good. 3M Super 90.

IMO the 3M 90 is best and far superior to the 3M 77. It's a little more expensive but worth it
