Everything you need to know about Eva Foam in 2023 both DIY and Professional
Whether you want to install Eva yourself OR get custom routed Eva foam for your boat, TBNation Outdoors has you covered.
Ditch the old, smelly, uncomfortable carpet in your boat and upgrade to EVA Foam. EVA Foam (SeaDek, OrthoDek, HydroTurf, MarineMat) is a great addition to your boat for an upgraded look, added comfort and ease of cleaning.
This is an upgrade you can DIY with sheets that you can purchase at TBNation.net. DO NOT USE THE AMAZON STUFF! It is not high quality and will not last, that is if you can even get to stick on the first go around.
Contact one of our two locations below for pricing and availability on adding Custom Eva Foam to your boat deck. You can also find the DIY Flooring Material & Sheets on our web store here: tbnation.net/collections/deck...

*How hot does the Eva Foam get? Eva Foam available from us is UV Resistant and stays cool to the touch even on hot summer days. We have been on full black EVA Foam (HydroTurf) in the middle of the day in summer barefoot with no issues. Forgot to add that little note to the video.

@TBNationOutdoors Год назад

Yup it is great for keeping your feet cool.

@Obxhatman Год назад

I did seadek and Marine mat which is pretty much the same thing. I can tell you this , from a black foam to a white foam , the difference in surface temp can be as much as 20 degrees. However , if you go to a lighter color , stains will show up more versus darker tones. I tried to stay somewhat neutral , with light greys and light blues etc......Still hard to keep clean but on a kayak when you are overtop that surface all day and just a foot or two from it , it does make a huge difference.

When transitioning from carpet to EVA on my bass boat, will I need to address the gap in the storage compartment where the old carpet was?

@grunfieldf8694 Год назад

Have a 18.9 Xpress aluminum boat. It has a bed liner type stuff sprayed on the decks. I would imagine one would have to remove this coating before installing the EVA. Yes or no?

@TBNationOutdoors Год назад

Yes, sand it down

@jeremyp1752 11 месяцев назад

How do EVA foams you showed, compare to the PE foam AquaTraction uses ? AquatTraction feels much tougher and actually warranties color and adhesion.

I’m replacing the carpet in my 2004 tracker PT175 with hydro turf, so what can I do about the gaps left between the lids and deck or box edges due to the old carpet having been rolled over the edge of the lids??? Can I coat exposed aluminum with a rubberized coating to deaden noise and cover exposed aluminum??? PLEASE, AND ADVICE WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!

@TBNationOutdoors 6 месяцев назад

We just paint any of the gaps and edges.

@mtaylor516 11 месяцев назад

Would you be able to lay Eva foam over a flat vinyl pre existing floor? I’m doing a pontoon and it has that already. Curious how to begin to redo it.

@TBNationOutdoors 6 месяцев назад

No, I would pull the vinyl up first, paint the wood and put it over the wood.

@larrywigmore1243 Год назад

New to this product. Can you use it in fiberglass boats as well. If so should the surface be smooth. In my 95 ranger the floor area is kind of bumpy. Idea's

Yes, I think it was primarilly meant for glass boats to begin with. It started out on jet skies. It will also go into cars.
