[QUOTE="Hanr3, post: 407173, member: 1055"] Hydroturf (closed cell foam) should work great. I would verify the adhesive to use, but think either outdoor carpet adhesive or contact cement will work great. I don't think you will have any issues with the rivets. I'd be more worried about the edges. What is your plan to protect the edges from lifting, getting chewed up by shoes? I would also be concerned about getting hooks stuck all the time. I use a closed cell foam pad for camping, and have for the past 20 something years. Great insulator, doesn't absorb water (ever), provides a nice cushion, and fairly inexpensive compared to other camp pad options. I also have a self inflating mattress and a cot. I have been known to use all three at once. When I winter camp, I use both the self-inflator and closed cell foam pad together. [/QUOTE]
