What is the best 1/4" facings and what glue do I use to install them? I called Diamond...They are closed all week. I found neoprene sheet at Grainger but I dont know which one is right. BTW I have a Gabriels table if that makes a difference. Thanks!!!-jeff

Hi Jeff,

First the obigitory I'm not a mechanic but, (I have stayed in a Holiday Inn Express). :D Seriously though, if you search the mechanic forum using the keyword duro you'll bring up 6 threads discussing your question. In short, it appears you should use neopreme with a durometer rating of 60. Consensus also seems to point to using 3/16 facings for the best performance / cloth wear trade off. I have no input for you on glue.

That being said, Grainger Item # 1MVZ6 appears to be your best bang for the buck. However, please consult the threads that come up from your duro search in the mechanics forum for the last word on this. I don't claim to be speaking from any sort of experience. Just thought I'd try to point you in the right direction.

Thank you! I will try searching duro ratings instead of facings.

Still need glue advise???

Weldwood will work fine, just make sure you glue the facings and rail ends twice and let it dry to tacky before you attach the facings.
