I removed my front roller and made a contraption out of wood and foam to put pressure on it and let it dry a few days and it feels is not going anywhere now, will try it soon on the water. I only had some fine scratches before from the boat sliding down from the roller so I don't expect that I will be hitting it hard loading up the boat. The glue it came with was plenty, if you shaped the shield perfectly to the boat some will actually sip out the edges and I had to wipe it away. Really pay attention to the instructions how to apply it, specially the part about leaving the protective plastic on until you are done and distance from the edge when applying the glue. ### ⭐⭐ Great Eye candy bad overall *by C***G on Reviewed in the United States on October 5, 2017* Amazon did their part in getting this product to me. Put it on the bow of my 31'. First time out traveling I noticed in the rear view mirror of the truck the guard hanging just barely attached. Never saw water before product adhesion failure. I'm an engineer by trade and work extensively with adhesives and metals. I repair and maintain my gel coat/fiberglass hull personally. In doing so I use resins and mixed epoxy. Had to give this an overall fail. Product looks shinny and well cut to design, hence the two star rating. In the end the product has to stay in place to do its intended job. Very sad, again because the product looks so damn good. UPDATE: sick of looking at a complete waste of money sitting on the shop bench to a side I completely cleared the guard back of all material. Brushed 3M primer 94 on the back of the guard and the hull to guard design layout. Placed 3M marine grade/water proof VHB (cut out guard design to exact shape from a custom 12"x12" VHB sheet) to the back of the guard. Stuck the whole thing to the bow keel. Separated on its own from the yacht yet again. Problem isolated, the guard flexed way too much for this kind of application. Ripples in the guard can be seen very noticeably. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works as designed with some help. *by S***G on Reviewed in the United States on August 12, 2018* Works as designed, but a little tricky to install. Despite spending a lot of effort trying to match bend to the bow curvature, still had some gaps that caused issues later. Attached as specified, but when bow lowered back on to roller, plate distorted causing a gap in one corner. Tape and clamps were not strong enough to overcome this or allow viewing of problem area. Would not have been a real problem if I had more adhesive, but the supplied squeeze pack was no longer usable after 24 hours. Had to order a tube of 3M 5200FC (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003E1ULRE/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1)to finish the job. Would be better if BowShield still supplied its adhesive in a resealable tube, for touch ups.TBD if this method of attachment is superior to the mounting tape version that lasted 10+years before it fell off. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ro/products/3497449-gator-guards-bowshield-bow-guard-small-or-medium-helps-protect](https://www.desertcart.ro/products/3497449-gator-guards-bowshield-bow-guard-small-or-medium-helps-protect) --- *Product available on Desertcart Romania* *Store origin: RO* *Last updated: 2026-06-25*
