What's that rubbery matte seat coating?

Post by lauri » Sun Mar 29, 2015 3:36 pm

I'm thinking about having my seats recoated as part of spring cleaning.

What is that rubbery matte carbon fibre anti-slip seat coating?

It looks like something that's sprayed on, but there are no discussions on the forum about what that is exactly. I've looked for something similar before in my composite / robotics builds, but haven't stumbled across the stuff before at my usual suppliers.

I'm about a 30h drive from the factory, but maybe they sell the stuff via their parts operation. I may do a parts order in a few weeks. Thanks.

I hereby give CAS983 the award for Best Forum Typo For A Very Long Time. If he wants a subforum for his own kind of self-torture, who are we to stop him? Mr Scherrer, can you set up a forum dungeon for CAS please?

I have just put some foam on my seats, it was made by these guys, 10mm thick offers seat protection and a bit of comfort :)
