We tried Goo Gone and contact cement solvent, and a few other things, the only thing that worked was a product called Goof Off, bought at Canadian Tire. Dampen a rag with it and hold it in place on the glue, it's takes a few minutes to soften the original glue. Wear nitrile gloves and make very

Alan, The original Velcro was very strong, but everything else I’ve tried has not lasted long. My panels are now all screwed to the overhead. I was tired of watching them fall off the ceiling when bashing into big waves. The SS screws are all capped with covers to match the overhead.

Alan, practical sailor reviewed hook and loop fasteners recently. Suffice it to say, as with everything boat related, evolution happens... in a good way. I was very impressed with the options available, some absurdly strong. I will track it down and send to you. Are you out tomorrow for the

OK Dennis, What do you mean Snap In? Did you install snaps or maybe build a teak frame and stretch mosquito screen like a painting, and wedge it into the fiberglass liner somehow making it stay there? Surely you have some cleaver hocos-pocus or little round head screws? Please say master. .

Alan. Isn't FRP "blasphemy" in a salon or so I thought that was the consensus when I did mine. I tried the Velcro route and didn't like the look. Too bulky at the edges. I used 4200 to secure the panels. So semi-permanent. I re-bedded everything prior. Had to brace the panels in place

Try some 3M Command strips. They make some with hook and loop. I think they may be the picture hanging strips. At the very least, the adhesive will come off without staining. I use 3M Command hooks in the galley to hang important things like bottle openers. :) They've been attached to the

Before messing with glue, at least try the self-adhesive industrial Velcro. A different breed, very tenacious. Dave. Message: 1 Date: Sat, 19 Nov 2016 09:03:59 -0800 From: Jim Watts <paradigmat...@gmail.com> To: 1 CnC List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> Subject: Re: Stus-List Vel

Alan – My panels are original and Velcro. The only thing I’ve found to reattach the existing tape, or securely hold new, is epoxy. I’ve tried so many different things I’ve lost track of all of them, but virtually everything else has failed within a year. It’s an aggressive solution,

My panels are velcro'd all around and screwed in each corner. The velcro that the PO used was the self-adhesive kind and it hasn't lasted well. It also left sticky bits in all the wrong places as it failed, so it's difficult to replace. If it was my choice, I would use a good quality solvent-based
