3M makes a product called Primer 94. It makes a much stronger bond between 3M adhesives and surfaces your bonding to. Would be perfect for those curved areas.
This video is 2 years old. I have a question . Would you still use it Today years later? The reason I ask, I am about to replace the carpet in my boat that is similar to yours And was considering hydrotherth. Have you had any problems With weathering?
Hahahaha, Love the drying process, Hope you didn't get caught hahha, that was funny, thank you sir. I have done that since I was a kid, blow dry the vehicle off, hahahah. Excellent job this video good sir. you went through every detail of this, I agree, the garage will be a huge help I don't have a garage to keep mine in, I have a carport, but can see running the vacuum as well as acetone on one section at a time, because I live on a dirt road as well and I get all that chalk from the gravel blowing in constantly as well. I will try to do it after a day of rain to keep that dust at bay. I am wanting to cover my live well lid with leather, we shall see, I have the wood cut for it, and then my shop got hit with lightening monday night. So I am still working on those repairs and along with all the storm damage here, we have flooded lakes, so I have a little time before I can get back out on the lake for spring fishing east texas anyhow. Thanks again for taking the time to make this video and share it with everyone. Keep up the fun videos ad know you got a new sub. Dale
Hey sir, i hope you can respond to this. i have a bass tracker pro team 175 and looking to making it a little more roomy. my idea is to remove the framing where the seats go and do away with it and configure a way to mount my seats on the back deck. i dont see an issue being thats basically how this boat is setup.
I’ve seen several boats with some of the framing removed and they seem to work fine. I’ve never removed framing from a boat so I couldn’t give you a honest opinion. Let us know how it works out. Thanks for watching
Have you considered wrapping the outside corner edge of the front deck edge, where you step up from the floor onto the front casting deck with a thin piece of aluminum angle? I watch an older video where an old boy wrapped the corner edge with thin Aluminum Angle to keep the edge from coming up or being torn back by foot traffic.
You said you had this on your old boat aswell? I keep my boat In the water for most of the year, does the sunlight hurt this stuff? I'm not to worried about it fading just looking for something so the aluminum wont be so hot on my dogs paws
@@goodtimeoutdoors3637 Thanks for the response. I am gonna do mine in a couple weeks. Your video and response really helped me decide to go with the hydro turf.
You mentioned that Hydro-Turf is affected by Direct Sunlight & Heat. What about after it is Glued Down? Bc we fish all day in the Hot Sun during the Summer.
I bought it off eBay. I think this is the same place. Hope this helps. www.ebay.com/itm/185376334137?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=bAQ7Al3KRVi&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=l1qv-_SKTei&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
Looks great. My Jon boat has like a diamond plate / textured floor. Will the mats adhere to it? Or does the surface have to be flat? I’d like something that deadens the sound for fishing and duck hunting.
@@goodtimeoutdoors3637 Thanks, I ended up calling the manufacturer today. They said to be safe use the contact cement and the non-adhesive backed matting. I have a small boat (only a few individual floor sections) so it wont be too much more of a pain to do that. I think I’m going to try that
Bad knees and lower back, here. Does this product have enough cushion after being applied to feel like to could help knees and backs while fishing? Thanks
Three sheets should do it. I highly recommend the 3m backing. It is a lot easier to put down and it has been great in my boat. Just make sure your boat is really clean before you put it down. Thanks
Turned out good. The only thing I would’ve maybe done different is cut and test fit all the pieces before sanding and cleaning that way less chance of contaminating the surface.

Thanks for watching and subscribing. I hope it work’s great for you
Did the lip of the hatch frame cause you any concern
Not at all.
That looks amazing! I’m about to turf my whole 16 Jon boat.
Great video! Very helpful; been thinking about adding some to my G3. Sub’d your channel. Let’s keep the outdoors thing growing!!
Thanks. I really appreciate that
Are you still happy with it? Has it lasted?
I don’t have the boat anymore but it still looked new when I sold it about a year after I installed it. Thanks for watching
great video man. i’m going to do my 1860 WarEagle here soon. where do u order your turf from?
I ordered my turf off eBay, but I think it shipped from Hydroturf. Thanks for watching. I really appreciate it.
Great info video. I'm headed your way with my boat for you to do.
Thanks. Happy to help
That music is so awesome. Make it louder and more obnoxious next time.
What kind of boat is this? I need one
Fisher 1860

Awesome Video would love to see a followup after the summer of using it and the fall as well. Thanks for the video.
I will do a follow up video soon. Thanks for watching

I’ve never had it on a boat I left uncovered so I couldn’t say. I imagine it would fade but it would probably still stick good
You’ve had the hydro turf for a while now. Are you happy with it?
It’s awesome. I should have done it sooner. I will be doing a follow up video soon. So please subscribe. Thanks
@@goodtimeoutdoors3637 Thanks for the response. I am gonna do mine in a couple weeks. Your video and response really helped me decide to go with the hydro turf.
No problem. Thanks for watching. If you have any questions please ask. I’m sure you will really enjoy the Hydroturf
You mentioned that Hydro-Turf is affected by Direct Sunlight & Heat. What about after it is Glued Down? Bc we fish all day in the Hot Sun during the Summer.
What camo name is this green ? On the website it doesn’t say swamp camo ?
It was swamp camo when I installed that. They may have changed it. Thanks for watching
@@goodtimeoutdoors3637 could you provide a link to it ??
I bought it off eBay. I think this is the same place. Hope this helps. www.ebay.com/itm/185376334137?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=bAQ7Al3KRVi&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=l1qv-_SKTei&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
I don’t think that link has the 3m backing but I would suggest buying it with the backing. Several places on eBay have the hydroturf. Thanks
Hey GTO, great Vid. I’m about to do this to my scolding metal boat! Question: do the ribs run down the long side or the short side of the sheet? 🤘🏼
Long side
Looks great!I’m gonna do my 1652 GR3 seats and front deck just to cool it down from the sun.
Thanks for watching
No BS you did a good job on this video keep it up. But how is it with heat, I like wearing no shoes but is it bad or not to bad on hear
It’s good on your feet.
What brand is it again
Hydro turf
Haha 100mph get the water out lol
Looks great. My Jon boat has like a diamond plate / textured floor. Will the mats adhere to it? Or does the surface have to be flat? I’d like something that deadens the sound for fishing and duck hunting.
I’m really not sure but I think it you get it really clean it will stick. I put it over rivots and it done fine.

Yes sir how is holding up thinking about doing this to mine thanks and also were did you get it at
I sold the bought after about a year of use on the hydro turf. It held up great. Just spray out the dirt from hunting and still looked new.
What kind of prep work did you do, before applying the hydro turf? Looks great! thanks for sharing.
How durable is this product with sliding ice chest and gear in and out the boat? Any experience with dogs on it? How does it hold up with dogs
Bad knees and lower back, here. Does this product have enough cushion after being applied to feel like to could help knees and backs while fishing? Thanks
Same here. Bad knees and back. It does help a little I think not a huge difference but enough of a difference to notice. Thanks for watching
Just saw another vid, with 9mm pad under hydro turf, maybe the Cushion my body would like. Thanks again for your vid. and reply
Is that a Grizzly boat?
i have the sure tread spray on my 2021 tracker grizzly, gonna be a pain to clean with acetone before the install of hydro turf
Let me know how good sticks to that surface. Mine was just a smooth painted surface so I’m curious as to how well it sticks to the liner material
Did you ever put the hydro turf on that Grizzly nickabluh?
How does your boat drain? It looks like the center has no drain holes to the stern???
The floor drains on the sides and the back of my boat has 2 drain plugs it is a tunnel hull boat
Nice job, I appreciate seeing people use skills and create or make something better for themselves.
Great vid thanks man I would like to hear how it’s holding up with only the 3m backing and no contact cement
It is great. I plan to do a quick video in the next few days on how it’s holding up. Thanks for watching
Is that swamp camo color
About to pull all my carpet and install turf.Great video and u just gained a sub.
Thanks. I highly recommend it. I’m loving it
Love the videos brother I need to do mine as well!
Thanks
Where did you get your bench seat
It’s factory
Where did you get the cushions or lone seat
Came with the boat
Awesome
how well did your hydro turf hold up last summer
Held up great. Check out my channel I posted a follow up video.
How much did the hydro turf cost in all
$360 with shipping for 3 sheets with the 3m backing.
Nice job 👍🏻
How many sheets was this again??
3
Did you build the front hatch yourself or did you buy it from somewhere?
The front deck is factory on the boat
@@goodtimeoutdoors3637 Ah okay I gotcha thank you
Your welcome bud. Got any other questions just ask. Thanks
Where did u get the foam to do this
It came from Hydroturf
Did it make your boat ride quieter?
It made a huge difference. Much quieter. Thanks for watching.
Where did you get the rod buckle
Cabelas
Well done on the installation and the vid
Thanks
good job - good prep
Thanks

@@goodtimeoutdoors3637 Just purchased a tracker 1860. The 3 sheets was enough for you?
@@brent7263 yes it was. I did have a few seams but you can barely tell it. 3 sheets was perfect
