Hey guys I applied a new deck grip to a new Minnie Driver a few weeks ago. Did everything right but when I pulled it out today I've noticed the rear pads haven't sealed to the board well.
It MAY be ok but I am off to the Ments and can't take a chance.
Is there a glue out there I could take just in case or do I need to remove and get a new one.
I'm in Darwin so a bit tricky to take pad back (bought in Sydney)

Super glue has always worked for me if u clean it up again with some turps beforehand

Contact Cement - the type of mustard brown glue that you use to re-sole shoes. You can get it anywhere... even the newsagency.

This will not damage your board and any excess can be cleaned off with Mineral Turpentine (which does not harm the board).

Do not use Acetone to clean your board!

Kwik Grip (not Kwik Grip Advanced) is a popular one. I've used it on most of my pads at one time or another.
