Anyone have any idea on material to apply over plywood bulkheads on
forward head of Morgan OI 41?? I have thought of the following:
stainless sheeting (what gauge? 18?); formica, vinyl wallpaper. Had
wallpaper on before but it was always peeling and attracting mildew. I
had also thought of some type of acrylic sheeting but have no idea of
what is available. Would also appreciate source of material you might
recommend. Thanks. Joe
Well, I would ensure the plywood itself is completely watertight.
Once that's confirmed, you might consider the type of material used in
tub surrounds, where they retrofit over tiles to create a seamless
surface. I LIKE the idea of stainless, or even aluminum
sheeting...hey, copper sheating as used for roofs would be cool, if
you like the eventually greeny tinge...
Me, I like metal or something without a break, like precision-cut
vinyl. Sealing the wood behind is paramount, IMO.
