Quick question, I just remounted my bindings and need to fill the old drill holes. For now, I filled them with a glue gun but if water gets in it could erode the glue, any other ideas? Crazy glue, apoxy, maybe even p-tex? Just want to know what you guys use to keep the wetness out.

marine epoxy should work well.

Definetly the way to go... You put some waterproff wood glue in the holes, put the plugs, cut the plugs and let it dry... go to your local shop they may give some to you...who knows, or go buy them...

PTex would not do the trick at all. It doesn't stick great to wood and it's too thick to fill the whole hole so water can get in and under the Ptex.

nooooo no no. dont use glue or epoxy or anything. go to your shop and ask them for some plugs. then rubber hammer them in and cut off the excess.

They use this like blue waterproof glue, but basically any water proof glue will do the trick because the plugs get jammed in there so hard that the glue basically just seals it off 100% instead of 99%

yeah ptex will probably just fall right out
at the store i work at we'll sell you the plugs for 12 cents each (i give em out for free tho since we have thousands and thousands) so get them and do it right
