: Am thinking of using that material for a hull on a kayak. It glues easily and
: permanently, sewing in tougher but doable. Anyone else had experience with
: fabrics like this?
Not yet, but I'm about to. I've got a huge section of pvc tarp (I think) that was on a billboard. This material is very tough - having withstood high winds for days and days. I'm wanting to use it for my boat's skin, but haven't yet figured out how I'll fasten it. Sewing will require an industrial machine. Gluing? That's what I'd like to do, but I'm uncertain about what glue to use yet. I bought some "Marine Goop" from Home Depot and will try that.
What glue do you use for your raft?
Anyone know other good options?
