Pressure treated wood got a bad reputation when people tried to used it in transoms and stringers. The tests show fairly good adhesion but like cterrebonne says it has to really be dry....and it doesn't come from the lumber yard dry. I'm still tempted to use it on boats and have read a lot of stuff on the web about making sure it's got no residue and is very dry first. Epoxy is a great glue, but can't penetrate the grain if it's already full of water.
