I am the second owner of 2012 Z521. It has padded front deck and I notice the carpet is beginning to look buckled like its coming unglued from the pad. The carpet is in great condition so not time to replace but wondering if there is any opitons to reglue and smooth back out my front deck??

Contact Jet A Marine and ask for service. They have done 100's (maybe more).
You can put some contact cement in a large syringe and inject it under the carpet. Place a board with a weight on it on the carpet until it dries.
Ranger uses a foam type padding and it tends to work loose with common foot traffic heavy in the front deck, when i get ready to recarpet my Ranger i will be using a totally different carpet and padding and pad the entire boat like i did my old Triton it came out amazing and the glue makes a big difference too.
I had my padding removed because I was told it would probably happen again. I don't even miss it.
I have the same problem with the carpet on my 2011. It is has buckled in a couple places. Where do you get a large syringe?Originally Posted by Rip Bass
What carpet and padding are you referring to ?
My '08 Z520 did the same thing and I took it to a dealer and was told that padding for that year was not very good and they replaced mine, while still in warranty with newer padding and replace the carpet with a new piece, till looks good to this day.
