CARE & REPAIR

REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS

REPAIRS TO THE HARD BOTTOM SIDE OF CRIME BOARDS
Your hard bottom side is made of epoxy resin. To repair it your going to want to get an epoxy product for it to be compatible. We like to use epoxy putty that you can find at your local hardware store. In the video above we show you how to repair dings to the hard side with epoxy putty and then color match the board to finish the job.
REPAIRS TO THE SOFT TRACTION TOP SIDE OF CRIME BOARDS
The soft side of your crime board is made of EVA traction material. Tears can happen from impact of sharp edges like rocks or fins to the material. Fixes are very easy to this side. We like to use super glue to just quickily and easily mend the eva together from tears. Light sanding with extra fine grit sandpaper can be used to clean glue residue from the seam after the glue dries.
