Waterproofing plywood using epoxy paint Discussion in ' Boatbuilding ' started by Cadeb5Jul 18, It is my first time building or repairing a boat of any kind, and I plan to build an 8' by 2' boat using treated plywood.
I have no experience with this and welcome any advice on what would be best to seal Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 and waterproof the boat, I was looking at using CPES epoxy paint for boats 30 am unsure. Cadeb5Jul 18, Welcome to the forum. Current treated plywood in the USA isn't compatible with epoxy coatings. The recent change in chemistry makes this, though you can get CCA treated plywood the Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 old stuff if you have a commercial license.
CPES epoxy paint for boats 30 more of a marketing tool more than anything. It's not water proof not even close and has limited Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 uses, frankly. Epoxy and epoxy paint aren't the same thing, though their chemistry epoxy paint for Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 boats 30 some similarities.
Neither epoxy paint, nor CEPS will seal wood. Several brands types of paint actually seal wood better than CEPS. An 8'x2' boat can't support. Assuming a real 8'x2' box, without curves, just a epoxy paint for boats 30, a 2" draft will Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 yield pounds of displacement.
At 3" of draft you'll get about pounds of displacement. Assuming you'll put some bottom 2 Pack Epoxy Paint For Boats 85 rocker for maneuverability and shape in the ends, you'll decrease these Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 figure substantially. What design are you building? PARJul 18, What would you recommend I use to waterproof the plywood? Why do you need to waterproof the plywood? DCockeyJul 18, Epoxy paint for boats 30 you are going to store the boat out of the water there is no reason to use treated wood.
It is toxic and costly. If this is your first time build I suggest just using exterior grade doug-fir AC plywood, nicer finish and it will cost. Doug fir is Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 Paint For 30 Epoxy Boats fairly rot resistant by itself and if stored out of the water will give you many Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 years of service.
Just use gloss exterior porch paint, seven layers after it is built. Oil based Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 Clear Epoxy Paint For Boats Online Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 paint is more durable, but takes much longer to cure between coats, for a boat like this Latex epoxy paint for boats 30 will work fine. And that will offer a fair amount of protection to the wood.
PetrosJul 18, Thank you very much Petros. A few things here - you cannot Clear Epoxy Paint For Boats Machine paint or epoxy coat treated lumber for about 6 months - to allow the 'Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 treating' chemicals to 'dry out' The difference between epoxy paint and marine epoxy is that that marine epoxy is raw resins and curing agents and a few misc additives.
The epoxy paints epoxy paint for boats 30 pigments and thixotrophic agents. Except floor epoxies which skip the thixotrophic additives for better self leveling. Solvents help the epoxy 'soak in' - the solvents soak in and carry the epoxy. The question here is that solvents are cheap in bulk so are you getting ripped Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 off by something with so little epoxy in it?
Note that wood expands and contracts with water content and epoxies and other things with temp. So they move differently. So you want a flexible 30 Paint Boats For Epoxy epoxy that will soak in a little bit for max bonding. Fortunately solvents are also epoxy Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 paint for boats 30 agents by messing up the epoxy cross linking. Solvents also add pot life Paint Boats Epoxy For 30 time and thin the epoxy making it easier to apply. So best plan for you is to wait a few months.
Then one coat of thinned epoxy marine or epoxy paint for boats Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 30 paint. Then at least one coat more of epoxy - thinned or unthinned. The aluminum flake Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 pigments stack on top of each other as the coating shrinks when the high amount of solvents flask off. This produces a 'metallic' barrier and works as well as two coats of epoxy Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 in sealing out water.
I've found the new CA chemical process on PT, doesn't permit epoxy to get a good "grab" on the surface of PT lumber or plywood. The old CCA chemistry did permit epoxy to get a good bond with the surface. The old CCA Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 treat stock is available and used commercially, but not sold at the retail level. If you want Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 to use CA epoxy paint for boats 30 stock, I'd skip the epoxy all together and just go with Paul's Aluminuthane did I spell that right product, which can be over Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 painted the color you want it's silver out of the.
It'll work very well as a sealer, though not a completely water proof barrier, good enough on a PT plywood built Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 boat, as you've described. Lastly, as Paul has mentioned and I'm sure you know, if Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 you've ever worked with PT materials, it needs some time to dry.
I've found stickering it up in a "Mini Storage" unit, can make quick work of this, if you put a box fan on it and let the heat of the day and the closed door cook Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 off the moisture. Another method is a regular metal storage epoxy paint for boats 30, with a black painted roof and no insulation can be effective, if in the sun most of the day.
PARJul 19, How about ths? If your planning a "Sneak Box" or small "Jon", how Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 Epoxy Boats 30 Paint For about 8" planks of whatever the sawmills locally can come up epoxy paint for boats 30, that is without knots or swirls n the Grain. Then use Battens to make it sorta Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 water proof.
With a boat that small you don't have to worry about a little water getting in the boat. And where you find that 'leak' you can stop it with a Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 little creativity. So while it looks waterproof, it is actually porous. I'm curious about all Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 these opinions. I think I'll contact a Mfg. Does anybody have a Mfg they'd like Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 to hear from?
Hey, Thud, they're not really manufactures, so epoxy paint for boats 30 as reformulators, at least in regard to epoxy. The furthest you have to look is at post Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 number seven. Paul Oman has been formulating epoxy for over 20 years. PARJul 20, Don;t know Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 about the 'holes' seems unlikely, but in any event you need at least 2 coats of Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 any epoxy or non epoxy product to seal.
One epoxy paint for boats 30 leaves pin holes, Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 thin spots, missed spots. Multi coating pretty much fixes these issues. What about plain ol' Oil based For Boats Epoxy 30 Paint House paint for a boat made with Boards?
It might work on Plywood too, but planks are just plywood Alkyd paint works fine, but it's not water proof, nor especially hard and Epoxy Paint For Boats 30 durable.
