Glueing a footpad grip back onto board, is it just a trip to bunnings for epoxy glue? Or is their some better product out there to glue it back onto board, to keep it in place.
Any help appreciated

I think its Selleys contact adhesive - the waterproof one. I put masking tape around the external of where pad will go as with the contact adhesive you paint on to both board, and pad - wait till touch dry, and press both together. The masking tape also serves the purpose, that you can align it perfectly - as once put together you wont get apart other than cutting!

Selleys contact adhesive is the only stuff to use. It is really strong. Just DO NOT SPILL ANY on your board as it dont come off, it leaves an orange/brown stain that can only be removed by sanding. I have used this stuff over the years, it is really good.

just make sure you use the waterproof one - i accidentally used the more "user friendly" selleys contact ahdesive and it was rubbish. The proper selleys contact cement seems really good...

The best stuff is selleys contact adhesive. make sure you get the gell version. It is so much easier to use
