Adhesive for deck pad


So I tried to pull off my NSI deck pad from my surfboard so I could put it on my other surfboard. About a quarter of the way through, I realized I wouldn't be able to re-stick it so I've decided to buy a new set. But the part that I peeled off, is not re-sticking.

Can someone recommend a good adhesive and where to buy it that won't destroy my glass if I ever decide to completely remove it?

Just got off the phone with NSI tech support:

As long as these are not the NSI pads with inserts (SURF N SKIM) they recommend any quality contact cement.

Apply to both surfaces, let it tack up, and then join the surfaces. To insure a good bond, apply a weight to the pad during the drying process.

ATB,
Sam

Wolf, I occasionally get the feeling that actually enjoy talking to tech support :ticking::crazy:.

Wow...thanks Wolf!

If they are Surf N Skim, then I would definitely give NSI a holler. As it sounded like they were an exception case. NSI's number is (541) 386-1980. Friendly folks... should be able to sort you out right quick.

@Maven: Actually it can be interesting talking to tech support folks. I ended up having a long and interesting talk about kites with one of the reps from the North American Fire Equipement Company (NAFECO). He was just starting to fly dual-lines, so we got a chance to pick each others brains.
