I seem to remember that there was a product you could bruch on a map (old-school paper type) that would waterproof the thing, while allowing it to still be bendy and foldy -- am I haluncinating again? | ||

I just mounted a Garmin Street Finder GPS on the XB12R...waterproof and continually updating - I can't get lost now! | ||

Well, the tank bag has a place for the maps. I figure the tank bag with map and gps. I'll be set for my trip in 2 weeks. | ||

Bomber...You should still be able to get it in liquid form through Whitehorse Press. | ||

wow! a 25% useful and focused answer ratio! must be some kinda record! ;-} | ||

So Outrider, If Bomber gets in liquid form then drinks it, Will it flow directly to the brain for ingestion? Then he can commit it to memory??? LONG DAY here..................... I need to go home and partake of some bike therapy!!!! | ||

I think it's also in the Aerostich catalog. Glenn | ||

Newfie...Perhaps he can use it to preserve a plate of finely prepared Salt Cod. LOL Hey, it's only Monday. You should be refreshed after a weekend on the beach with the family.  | ||

goto a large print shop...they laminate with a machine it should run you 1.50 a sqft I have laminated 5 mil it comes in 48in rolls i laminate all my maps that i make myself | ||
| Bomber |
signer -- will a laminated map still allow me to bend the thing every which way but loose? I didn't think so, which is why I never thought of it as an option -- | ||
| Signguyxb12 |
true... i use the brush on type stuff also and would be a better choice (i usually bend it into submission) there is a spray called frog juice, that's what you want if you have a problem with ordering my wife can order it for you and drop ship it from the supplier lisa@bvsigns.com (reference this posting) http://new.far-from-normal.com/superfrog_article.html | ||

The laminated maps work really well, especially if you're willing to cut the map on its folds prior to lamination so the the bits inside the folded area stay readable. I use these a lot and they are very durable. Rob | ||

Thanks singer! I appreciate the back up -- Rob -- I've seen that done, but looking at the maps I use, I can nver tell where I'm gonna fold em, ya know? if they'd only do like they did for the pilots in WWDeuece -- print the maps on silk! | ||
