Hi, I have a backpad that needs repair (some water damage, tears, cracks, etc...).
Anybody have any ideas on repairs to the fiber board?
I have tried to search the forum but could not find threads on repairing the backpad.
Thanks,
Bill.

The biggest problem you'll find with the 914 Rubber back pad is that's it's made of fiberglass so staples won't go through it. MPITA. I repaired my fiberboard original the best I could using a fiberglass repair kit but the repairs were not where the staples go. I'll put a couple of pics here in the coming days.

Not saying anything bad about the 914 Rubber part....it's just not easy or straight forward to work with.
