Anyone care to give me any guidence on replacing the carpet on my 20' pontoon boat.
I have questions :
What type of adhesive should I use?
Should I use a roller on the carpet and if so are they easily rentable?
What type of stapler should I use to tack carpet along the perimeter?
Any other pointers wpuld be appreciated...Tnx, Sam

Pontoon boats are a piece of cake to carpet. Remove the rails and seats and also remove the alluminum moulding that is screwed around the perimeter of the deck. Use outdoor carpet adhesive and have plenty ventilation, preferably outdoors, as the outdoor adhesive is highly flammable. You can rent a roller from any tool rental co.
