Re: Gluing Foam?

you can buy close cell foam with peel and stick on the back from a place from call northshoreinc from 1/16" to 4" thick or you can use the good old can of contact cement (not the water base type) but the good old nasty smelling stuff. I have used it on my boards and it has never comes off ...
