: When talking to a rep at ocean kayak about my kayak, we started talking about glues and goop; and the rep pointed out that there really is no good glue or goop for the plastics used in making their kayaks. The seals might work for the time being but should be inspected for possible delamination of the bond.
This is true.In my conversations with Ocean Kayaks rep's, they informed me the only way to get a good bond was through vigurous cleansing and then "roughing" up the surfaces heavily prior to bonding. Good Luck
