Default watertight coating for marine plywood deck

Hi

"Pete C" skrev i en meddelelse
...
If it's going in other places then it may because the canvas has not
been painted properly when it was applied. The paint should fill the
weave of the canvas completely and the bond it to the ply leaving no
gap between them.


If you find a book about boating from before the hippie age, you will se
that you DO NOT use the paint as resin and the canvas as glasfiber , but
acturly make sure that the canvas Do NOT stick to the deck. The way you make
sure that the canvas DO NOT stick to the deck, is to seal with linseed oil
and water the canvas to make it tight , ------- in the old day's you painted
while the canvas was just damp ,to be sure the paint DID NOT penetrate the
canvas and if it did, the linseed oil shuld make it not happen.
Why , ------- well if you seen the difference you know why, as done right
canvas will last decades but glued with paint, it will not last more than
one or two years.
Another lost art.
