How do i apply a used traction pad onto a new surf board? What kind of glue? Is it even possible?

Answer 1

itll just come off in the long run. The old glue wont provide enough smooth surface for new glue to form good adhesion.

best thing to do is get a new pad.

h**l if your a good ebay-er you can score a new pad from 15-20 bucks.

Answer 2

Really, there's no way to do it. I wouldn't go putting super glue or anything on your board. As for using resin, like fiberglass or epoxy resin, that would be plain stupid, because the resin would nearly permenently bind the trac pad to your board.

Really, just get a new one. They're no more than 30 bucks. Personally, I prefer Creatures of Leisure stomp pads. Make sure to clean your board with Acetone (such as wax remover or nail polish remover) first and let the trac pad sit for about a day before you test it out.

Answer 3

its just as cheap to buy a new pad.  20 bucks...

or you could use resin of some sort, but if the pad comes back off you are in trouble with any sort of glue, you will have to sand it off.  Just spend the money on a new pad, just be sure to get your board good and clean before putting it on

Answer 4

get a new pad!
