Hey all I am looking for some reef safe magnets. I am tired of my suction cups failing every half hour. I would love some old cleaning mags or something. The suregrip mods are a little pricey but I will buy some if I have to. I need 4 or so

Lee Valley has rare earth magnets that are quite cheap. Just coat them with epoxy and they`re good to go.

What about some button, rare earth magnets. Lee Valley or Princess Auto. Encase them in epoxy. Like in a bottle cap or something,then cut the cap off

yep to both places. It just so happens I have to go to Kelowna tomorrow anyways, so off to Princess Auto I go. Thanks to both of you
