Did you have trouble with > the velcro trying to curl up after you put the Weldwood contact cement on? Nope. Some curling, but not a problem. News to me (someone said this -- maybe Sprenne) that Weldwood is proto-neoprene. If it is, all the more reason to expect it to work on Hypalon (which is neoprene) and wet suit material (also neoprene), though there can't be any active polymer ends in the Weldwood. -- Dave Kruger Astoria, OR *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - All postings copyright the author and not to be reproduced/forwarded outside PaddleWise without author's permission Submissions: PaddleWise_at_PaddleWise.net Subscriptions: PaddleWise-request_at_PaddleWise.net Website: http://www.paddlewise.net/ ***************************************************************************Received on Sat Aug 19 2000 - 23:06:46 PDT
