Replacing old, worn Personal Water Craft floor mats is important maintenance. Sun, water, and general use wear out this critical craft part that provides safe footing. Replacing these worn mats not only preserves the new appearance of the craft, but also preserves personal safety.<\/span><\/p>\n Over the years owners tend to replace these factory foam mats with the newer more improved Hydro-Turf\u00a0traction mats. Depending on how old your Jetski is will depend on what type of floor mat you have and the type of contact adhesive or rivets that were used.<\/span><\/p>\n Even these steps are more suited to removing Hydro-Turf from Sea-Doos and Yamaha Waverunner jet-skis. They can also be applied to removing marine carpets on boats.<\/p>\n Part of restoring one of our old Sea-Doos was a complete 4-Tec engine oil and filter change,<\/a>\u00a0along with a PWC coolant flush,<\/a> and yearly Sea-doo spark plug replacement<\/a>. Now that the insides are healthy it’s time to make sure the outside of our Jet-ski looks pretty.<\/p>\n Rubber gloves (Optional-if you do not mind adhesive remover and adhesive on your hands. That stuff stinks and it is hard to remove let alone it could be carcinogenic.) An extra pair of hands (You need help to hold the new mats in place as you set them. On fresh adhesive you do not get a second or third chance to adjust the placement.)<\/span> Now depending on the age and model of your Yamaha, or Sea-Doo jetski will require different methods on how to remove Hydro-Turf. The most common way to stick them down was contact cement. But I have also seen some older models which have been pop-riveted down.<\/p>\nHow to Remove HydroTurf, Materials List<\/h2>\n
