There is no substitute for genuine Velcro-brand loop with 3M acrylic adhesive. It adheres well to composite and plastic canoes and kayaks, is very water and heat resistant, and won't "wrinkle" the way nylon/polyamide loop Velcro with rubber-based adhesive does. The technical stuff: Velcro Part Number: 155237  Width: 1-inch (25.4mm) Adhesive: 3M Acrylic Pressure-Sensitive Adhesive (0172) Color: Black Loop and Tape Material: 100% Polyester This product listing is PER FOOT of Velcro. The Velcro will be shipped as a single strip and can be cut with a pair of stout scissors.  Note: If you would like pre-cut Velcro strips for your Paddle Pocket, they're available here. If you would like pre-cut Velcro strips for your Gunwale Bag, they're available here as just strips or here as a full install kit with the strips and SNAD snap studs. 

Adhesive YKK SNAD Snap studs allow you to use snap-attachment accessories without drilling into your boat to rivet a standard snap stud. They attach with 3M VHB adhesive tape that’s already applied to the back of the SNAD snap.  These SNAD snaps are 25mm in diameter and rigid black plastic. They’re best for smooth surfaces with minimal curvature. If you can place a quarter on the boat in the location you want to apply the SNAD and the quarter lays flat on the surface, the 25mm rigid SNADs should work well. 

Adhesive YKK SNAD Snap studs allow you to use snap-attachment accessories without drilling into your boat to rivet a standard snap stud. They attach with 3M VHB adhesive tape that’s already applied to the back of the SNAD snap.  These SNAD snaps are 25mm in diameter and have a stainless stud attached to a flexible, clear base. They’re best for contoured or moderately curved surfaces and surfaces with mild texture (like the inside of a composite canoe or kayak).  Note: The base appears red in the photographs because the backing on the 3M VHB tape is red plastic film which is removed during installation.
