What to do after removing carpet
Hi,
I have a 24' 1977 Sea Ray with a really awful carpet which needless to say has seen better days. I am in the process of sprucing up my boat and one of the things I want to do is to remove the carpet and put a more user friendly coating on the decking. Something that will stand up to the hot Texas sun but will also allow for easy cleanup if I decide to go the Gulf and fish a little. I am open for suggestions. I will probably repair a couple of soft spots around the engine cowling as well as in the galley. I had thought of a couple of options. 1. Remove the carpet/glue, then either epoxy or fiberglass gel coat the old plywood and any new that I might install. Then paint the water proofed wood. 2. All the above (without the paint) and spray "bed liner" on the decking. I don't know if that would be a good idea or not, since I haven't checked to see if the bed liner material will adhere to fiberglass/epoxy finished wood. Any thoughts on this matter would be appreciated. Michael in Dallas |
