Other - Need new turf and seat cover - Hydroturf or blacktip?

Location

I am fixing up a Blaster and recently repainted it and now need to turf it and want to replace the seat cover also.

Is there any big difference between the hydroturf and blacktip stuff? I know hydroturf has been around for a while, not so sure about blacktip. Is there any real difference in quality between these? I'm just going with basic black, so the color options don't really matter to me.

Also, is it worth doing the peel and stick backing rather than the regular cement? I've used cement in the past and it can be a little messy, but I know it works. I'm applying over a painted surface rather than gelcoat if that makes a difference.

Thanks for any advice.

HYDROTURF ALL THE WAY! Support the people who support the sport, and HydroTurf is one of the biggest supporters of the sport that there is. You may spend a little extra money with HYDROTURF but it will be worth it. I've never used Blacktip, so I don't know the quality but I do know that Hydroturf has excellent quality, my turf lasts years before it needs to be replaced. Use the regular cement also, the glue on backing doesn't work as well. Use regular super glue on the edges that peel
