This soft, durable, high density minicell foam is great for custom fitting bulkheads, hip pads, thigh braces, and seat pads. Can be used to replace seat pads in classic Aquaterra (Perception) Jocassee tandem kayaks, some trimming and gluing is required.
Cut and shape to fit any need! Use a hack saw blade, dry wall saw*, or band saw to cut. Fine tune shape with a Stanely Sureform Plane*. A router can be used to carve relief slots. Glue with EM 89 adhesive-sealant, alternatively use DAP Weldwood contact cement* for pads, Lexel for bulkheads, as well as 3M 5200 Adhesive Sealant*. *TopKayaker receives a small commission on sales through these links.
