Durabak over wood

[macojoe]

I agree that glassing is the cheapest way and you really can't mess it up!! In my first post I linked him to someones thread showing them doing the glass.

But he was asking about Seaboard so I was telling him that it will work fine.

Heres the reasoning for the Seaboard. I currrently have a piece of plywood covering the small hatch in my floor, so I need a better solution there. My current fuel tank cover has a lot of cracks so I really don't want to just recore. And the final reason: I have a 14ft fiberglass skiff that has a 30" square cover over the middle seat. Well I had the cover in the back of my pick up 2 weeks ago and forgot to close the tailgate. Well needless to say it slid out the back of my truck and got rode over about a 1000 times before I realized it had fallen out. Also I figure I'll have about a half of sheet left after I do everything I need to do. I could double it up and use 2 pieces for a pullpit, and I'm sure I can find a use for the rest.

I think I have finally convinced myself, I'm going to order it tomorrow. i just need to decide on a color.

5200 doesn't bond well to the starboard, seaboard whateveryoucallit - ask me how I know.

How will you seal around the new fuel cover to keep water out if you go this route?

[Mulv80]

Blue, I was planning on using 3-M 4200. I also heard that Starboard/Seaboard is not easily bonded together with adhesive. i have heard however that 3M 4200 or 5200 will work fine for a seal.

If you screw it down real good and tight, I am sure the seal will be fine. You are not trying to bond anything just seal it.
