That tape sounds interesting though. Probably a lot easier (and less smelly) then the glue.

yes it is. also you don't have to grind off all of the old glue when you tear the carpet up.

I know Scott E did too. Nice carpet. I would nave gotten it there too but they didn't have a "grassy" green. Looks like some nice blues though!

Henrys brand is good.  They have some at Menard's.  Call a carpet supply distributor. When I did my pontoon carpet I got it from Bass Pro Shops.  It bubbled like crazy.  I asked for a refund and they gave it reluctantly.  I was able to salvage the carpet.  They would have replaced it.  Of course nobody else had a problem.  I tried to shoot glue in the bubbles with a syringe for 48 hrs.  Finally gave up.  The Henry's #263 outdoor carpet adhesive worked fine.  Just went out to my shop to check.  I still have the can.
