Hi There,
I enjoyed my first waves on the 10 NFA the last two weeks in les Landes and it was a lot of fun for me as a beginner (surfed two summers with Inflatables).
I love the board but unfortunately the deck pad started two delaminate at some areas.
I´m sure it´s a minor problem, I just wanterd to know how should I clean the surface of the board and which glue would be perfect to laminate it again.
Thanks in advance,
Michael

Re: delamination of the pad (NFA)
You need to use the M/S Polymer glues (Modified Silane). All brands have at least one in their line.
For instance UHU Max Repair, Pattex 100%, SADER Mega Strong...
For a (partial) list see the "Universelle Produkte" section of http://www.wikidorf.de/reintechnisch/In ... Klebstoffe
The different variants differ by their color, speed of curing, additives...
This is a new generation of glues: extra strong, but stay somewhat supple, and does not damage the board (no solvents) so removable.
- you only need to apply to the pad, no need to apply on the board
- they use moisture to harden, so it is not a problem is the board is a bit wet
- put the glue, press the pad in place and keep pressure (put weights such as water bottles on it). It should begin to harden after 5 minutes (so you can reposition the pad in the first minutes) and ready to use after 12 hours
Re-glue the pad as soon as delamination appears. The more you wait the more the pad risks stretching and losing its shape, or even tear.
