On another topic, we removed our original 1988 baffed out foam mattress + the foam egg crate topper this past weekend. I discovered a hatch below the mattress that provides access to below the bed behind the drawers. That is one huge carpetted hole down there and low and behold I found (2) 2' x 3' cushions that appear to be for the pull out bed in the salon. Another mystery solved. So back to the foam mattress. We bought (2) 3" x King Size miracle foam mattresses at Costco and we used the foam egg crate topper for a template to cut out the new mattresses. The problem is that because of it's irregular shape, we will have to glue two extra pieces on to complete this jigsaw puzzle. And now finally to my question. What kind of adhesive should I be using to bond these extra pieces onto the new miracle foam mattress? The original foam mattress was a wee bit damp around the hatch area so I will cut out a piece of 6 mil. poly to out down before installing the new mattress.
