Title: Have to color my pads - what do you recommend?
Post by: sachin200 on April 22, 2017, 04:07:56 AM
Hi guys I have to paint my pads. Any suggestions for the type of paint? I have seen too many peeling off within a game or two and hence was wondering what kind should I use?

I would recommend clads. I painted my pads and regret it when my league decided to go back to whites. With Clads, you can remove them easily without throwing away your pads.

This is what works best: KOLORBOND PAINT as its a coating designed to paint PVC  unlike other paint it forms a bond with the PVC surface of  your  pads.

Are Clads easy to put on and off?
