PONTOON CARPET INSTALLATION
(The easy way)

If you are re-decking: Make sure you are using the proper plywood-New CCA treated marine plywood and proper stainless steel bolts and xylan screws to prevent rust.

If you are not re-decking: Follow the instructions below.

1. Remove old carpet.
2. Make sure your deck is clean and there is no damage to the carpet as you roll it onto the deck.
3. Before you apply the glue, fold the carpet in half, running the length of the pontoon so that you will have about a four foot wide by length of your pontoon to begin with.
4. Instead of troweling with messy glue, simply pour the glue on the deck and roll on with any paint roller. (Approximately 80 sq. ft. to the gallon)
5. Once you have rolled the glue over the exposed deck, press the carpet down over the glue, repeating the same process on the other side.
6. Now use a heavy pipe or roller to press the carpet so the glue adheres and has a proper bond.
7. The carpet should then be covered for 24 hours as the glue is a water-based product and weather can have an adverse effect on the adhesion if not covered.
8. Allow 24 hours for proper bond.

Job well done!
