I was looking at the underside of the kayak, got some scrapes. With increased use, I can see this causing more damage.
Looking to protect the flat bottom underside. I currently have the berly keel guard installed on the bow, but was wondering about options for the bottom flat areas. I think some of the scrapes and scuffs have come from loading and unloading on my diy trailer.
I've seen a post about painting job weld on the bottom. Seems like alot of tubes. Can anyone recommend an adhesive strip or strip that's proven with a proven adhesive, something that won't peel back after a couple uses.
Appreciate the help.

Re: Keel/underguard
You could be the first but rhino lining is starting to cover all kinds of things. They do the tops of rv’s now and include lining all the plastic housing on the top. Might be pretty awesome to have them do the bottom on your yak? I had some pretty deep wounds in my hull from beaching it on shore over the years but never had any issues. Only down side to adding anything on the bottom including keel guards is increased drag.
