Step 1: distribution of traction pads
Before you peel off the pieces, place them on your board to visualize the layout pattern. You can take a photo with your phone to have a visual reference when sticking them on. Clean the surfaces of the board properly to make sure there is no dust, oil or other impurities. Rinse completely and allow surfaces to dry.
Step 2: First pad
Start assembling the mosaic with the first hexagon. Use the top plug of the center keel and the center stringer as a reference to locate the first piece. It is crucial to avoid touching the adhesive part of the pieces with your fingers.
Step 3: Glue the rest of the pads
Following the guide that comes in your pack of hexagonal traction pads, proceed to place the remaining hexagons along your Flysurf softboard, maintaining the design established in step 1. Position the stickers carefully for better surface coverage. Peel off part of the coating and press firmly the adhesive on the prepared surface. Slowly peel off the coating while applying the sticker, pressing firmly towards the edges.
Once applied, press the stickers firmly using even pressure, especially on the edges. Adhesion increases with the use of a spatula or a hand roller.
