Seaboard ...... and paint, epoxy, tape ???

[brianct12]

All,
My '88 V20 came with no door for the large live-well / storage area in the floor. I have to make one - and figure I will use the Seaboard stuff. But, I also plan on re-surfacing the floor as well. So my question is - what can I do to the Seaboard ... if I want to paint it to match the paint I put on the floor ? Will it take paint ? Epoxy resin ? Durabak floor stuff ? What if I want to carpet the floor - would I be able to adhere carpet to the Seaboard ?
Thanks in advance for any help !
