Reply To: Think twice about coating your float!

[PM T2]

There is a product that is better suited to this job than Krazy Glue. Some use model airplane dope to coat their floats. Personally, I never use anything to coat them. If they are naked and they float, they’re good to go. If they sink, throw it out and replace it because once the cork has shown it will absorb fuel and get heavy, there’s really no saving it except for a sawhorse queen motor. Closed cell foam floats are far superior and its easy to work with as far as cutting it so maybe consider making floats if you can’t purchase replacements.
