did a heavy duty glue job wit the 5200 quick cure(24hrs). total man time was 10 hrs and have loads of 5200 on my hands. Board looks great and I think the mosaic will be on without fail.
Thanks to all.

I'll try to remember to take a picture of the job we did on the board and post it later. I probably will get to excited when I get to the beach and charge out. I gotta put the sunscreen on in the house or I forget that to.
I'll try to remember. It came out really good, just took a lot of time.

Here are a few pictures of how it came out. Its holding up pretty good and best off has made me a much better surfer.

I thought of doing like you said lee with just the silicone and just roughing or pulling it just as it set up, but this worked out good.

I sure would have liked to see Starboard sell some sort of kit to have made it good. But all is good now.

also you will see 2 pictures of the surfers we have to deal with here.
