![]() "Shanghai" wrote in message ups.com... Sounds like a rubbery caulking (e.g. polyurethane) between the strips would be advisable over a black epoxy (which I've also heard is used) due to expansion/contraction issues. I'll have no piercings thru my glass membrane so no chance of leaks regardless of what happens to the overlay. Use Sikaflex 291 for your deck adhesive, but you will need to use a caulk with a UV light inhibitor. Sikaflex has such a product but is/was difficult to get in the U.S.. Teak Decking Systems (Florida) also has an excellent adhesive and decking caulk . You don't want to use a rigid epoxy with any teak decking thicker than 3/16". When using a cedar, never use epoxy if the cedar will be exposed to water...in my opinion. regards...Ken |
