I don't think garage floor epoxy has the necessary UV inhibitors. I'd
probably use a good marine deck paint as a top coat.

I'm not sure UV inhibitors are all that important for wood....
especially if recovered with carpet.

Gene, I'm not going to cover it with carpet this time. The paint has an
additive to make it a non-slip surface. You can get it in a bunch of
colors. Because it says it's okay to use on pool decks, etc, I'd think
it would have UV inhibitors, but for all I know about paint, that may
not be true!


From the description, like you, I suspect that it is UV safe....

Thanks for the input! I realize it won't last forever, but, I'm not
going to own her too much longer! I'm hoping to turn her into a nice
Triton or Nitro!
