Installing Hydro Turf Mats. Hope this helps! Not sure if you have installed Hydro- Turf before, but I have twice. Once on my 1. 99.
XP and once on my 2. RXP. The RXP took half the time as the 1. XP did, as doing the 1. XP was my first time and I was learning a lot. I pretty much did every part of the 1. XP mat install wrong.

Depending on your ski you will have to drill the old mat rivets out. Take a drill and drill them out. Depending on how dirty it is under the mats, take a rag, get it damp and put a few dabs of Dawn soap on the rag. Wipe down the area where the mats will be. Take a medium grit sand block and lightly sand the area where the new mats will go.
Take another damp rag and wipe off the dust and soap that is left behind. Fill in the holes with the epoxy that comes with the Hydro- Turf.
If you have a friend near by, have him do one side while you do the other. People say to use a stick to wipe the epoxy into the holes, I just used my finger. Much easier and faster. Wash your hands when you are done.
Let the epoxy dry a few hours. Hydro- Turf will recommend DAP Weldwood glue. You can get it almost any hardware store. You only need one can. Buy the cheapest paintbrush. DO ONE MAT SECTION AT A TIME!
Take the mat you wish to put on the ski and do a test fit on the ski. This gives you an idea of where to apply the glue to ski. Apply a good amount of Weldwood glue to the ski where you plan on laying down the mat. Better to use a little more than not enough. Watch the glue dry, literally. Once the glue starts to get slightly tacky, take the mat section that matches the area on the ski where you put the glue on.

Take that mat and apply an even thin coat of glue to the underside of the mat. Make sure you cover the whole mat, including the edges. DO NOT PUT THE MAT ON THE SKI YET! The glue on the mat will look shiny.

Wait for it to get unshiny or look like a matte finish (this could take up to 1. At this point it will feel tacky. Once it is not shiny, line it up and start from one side and press down firmly. Work your way across to the other side. If you do it right, it should stay stuck down and not lift up at all. If the mats lift up, when you do the next section let the glue set longer before you apply the mat to the ski. Do this for each mat section.
Depending on weather, let them dry for at least 3 days. If you get your Hydro- Turf and you pull it out of the bag and it doesn't lay flat, take a heat gun or hair dryer and heat the mats up and bit. Play with them and form them to lay flat.
If you install it right, the Hydro- turf should never lift up. I did my RXP a year ago and the turf still looks brand new. As for the 1. 99. XP, I layed down the mat after I applied the glue and the mats lifted up. I had to keep pressing it down to get it to finally stay. A few times on the water and the mats lifted up in the front edges on the 1. XP. Have fun! I wish I could do it for you, applying Hydro- Turf is fun!
