Enhanced Features of Hjdeck EVA Foam Marine Flooring
1. Improved EVA Material: Hjdeck has upgraded the EVA foam material used in marine flooring. The improved material provides better cushioning, higher durability and greater resistance to abrasion. The camouflage colored EVA flooring is significantly less prone to discoloration.
2. Thicker Backing: Hjdeck EVA Foam Marine Flooring has increased the thickness of the backing to provide stronger adhesion and ensure a stronger installation.
Installation Tips for Boat Owners
1. Consider the weather conditions: If you received your EVA Foam Boat Flooring in cold weather, it is recommended that you wait for temperatures to return before installing it. Alternatively, you can gently heat the adhesive backing with a hair dryer to help restore adhesion.
2. Allow sufficient curing time: After installing the EVA foam flooring, it is important to allow 1-2 days for the adhesive to fully bond to the hull surface. This will minimize the risk of the floor loosening in water or developing raised edges.
3. Properly Clean and Prepare the Surface: Before installing a new floor, make sure the boat's surface is clean and free of dirt, grease and wax. A clean, smooth surface improves adhesion and makes for a stronger installation.
