    Anyone use the exercise mat foam for padding decks?

    Like the title says. I bought some of this stuff with the intention of using it for this, and am about ready to give it a shot. But don't want to use it if others have with poor results.

    Will do. If all goes well, I'll start installing tomorrow.

    I use a 1/2 inch thick anti-fatigue mat like you have in a shop. Works great. Only downside is if it gets wet, you'll need to dry underneath. I used 1 inch decking screws and pull it up if I fish in the rain to dry. Other than that it is a big thumbs up for limiting wear and tear on the body.
