Looking for Glue Recommendations

[Paul Mountford]

I have a few grab loops to attach to my new CuryYak. I’m having trouble finding a suitable glue north of the border. Do any Canadian Packrafters have any recommendations? MEC sells North Water Vinyl Tec 2000 Adhesive. Has anyone tried that?

Alpackaraft was selling an Ace Hardware Vinyl glue, and I used it to attach grab loops to my Denali Llama in the past, but they no longer sell it. They don't ship the other glues to Canada.

Paul,

Alpacka recommends these two types of glue per their website .

You can buy these two types of glue here and here .

I would read through these before doing any of the glueing, and after personally doing it myself I was very glad I had a respirator even in an opened garage.

Hope this helps.
