  15. 3m 94 Primer

    AHHHH Corn hole boards.....We actually have a customer that sells these at college football games. Apply vinyl and have him put a polyurethane clear over top. This will keep the edges from lifting over time from the constant sliding of bags over them. Plus doesn't cause any unnecessary...
