Thanks Steve,

Do you have any experience with installation of this product and how well does it work going over existing fiberglass flooring?

Thanks

Great, I just found out they are 15 mins away from my home...

Have any of you used any other product I might be interested in?

Thanks again for your help.

lonseal, great looking, but hard on your feet and the silver lonwave is very hot on your feet

J-Bonz 03-10-2009 09:14 PM

From what I remember its a little tough on bare feet. Not the most comfortable but, looks great!

Is there a product out there that your aware of that looks as good and feet friendly?

The only thing thats going to better on your feet is carpet. It can get a little hot in direct sun on a hot day.

I've had both the Loncoin II and Lonwave (Lonwave is definitely the Cig floor). The Lonwave is harder to keep clean because of the deep grooves, water and dirt get trapped in the grooved sections. The Loncoin II is easy to keep clean and offers a little more skid resistance. I think it stands up better to wear also since it doesn't have any hard edges like the Lonwave does, I found it to be more comfortable to the feet, and is a little nicer looking but that part is just opinion. Stick with the light colored products and heat from the sun won't be an issue.

It should go down over a fiberglass substrate just fine, there are two methods to adhere the product. The first is the epoxy adhesive (two part if I remember correctly) which works great but forget ever taking it up, it would be very difficult to say the least. The other method is contact adhesive. I seem to remember that Lonseal offered this too. It would be much easier to remove if your floor ever became damaged.

You guys have been a great help - the only LAST question I have is - will it make a difference on the install if I already have a fiberglass insert that has a skid-proof texture?

The reason for all this is some idiot spilled resin on my fiberglass insert and never did anything about cleaning until it was to late and already dried and got in to the grooves of the floor - I have used just about everything to get it off but it just won't come up. I'm really fickle as to how my boat looks and I thought this might be an alternative...

Throw me a price on the material you said you have extra of - I just might take it off your hands - what color is it?

Call me if you like,

I'd grind the floor flat, shouldn't be that much trouble. If you create any divots just fill with the green marine bondo stuff (it's a vinylester resin product made by 3M). When I did the same thing with my Nordic it worked well.

TOASTY 03-12-2009 08:04 PM

thanks all for the e mails looks like while the roll was at the plant someone got to it and took off some for their own project... I have a little left 72" X 34" that is a true rectangle piece, and there is a bit more but you can use however you want. also i have the 2 sided tape that you can use instead of pourable glue. all bought from loneseal

i am near phila pa if anyone needs it
