Cork Pad Installation:

Throughly clean the board deck with alcohol or similar. Make sure no rest of wax is present. Avoid industrial cleaners.
Before starting, arrange traction layout. PRO TIP: We recommend standing next to the board with your stance or lining up and older board to copy the front foot location.
Use the stringer or mark the center of the board with a pencil.
Start with the first central part. Peel off the adhesive backing on one end (we recommend from the top) and start applying without stretching. PRO TIP: One of the properties of the material is that it’s quite elastic, so do not stretch it during installation.
Then side parts ensuring even gaps on each side. Align at the top and try again not to stretch the material to guarantee even lengths. PRO TIP: Use the HexaTraction spacer.
Apply pressure on all the edges.
Wait for some hours and go surf.

Cork Front Deck Grip Care & Maintenance
One of the main benefits of the cork Front Deck Grip is to get rid of the wax hassle, so what maintenance? Just a couple of simple care and maintenance recommendations to prolongue its life and keep it attractive and in optimal condition:
- Rinse with fresh water after each session to keep it clean and free from salt.
- If you notice a decrease of grip with time, dip a sponge or rag into warm water with dish soap and wring it out. Use the sponge or rag to gently wash the surface of cork grip. You can also use a hard sponge like Magic Eraser.
