Sealing Plywood

[surfingyogini]

Just a quick question... after removing the aluminium and replacing all of the sponge wood in the van, we want to ensure that no more water gets in... ever! What should I use to seal the edges of the ply? Will the butyl mastic do this job when I'm using that to attach the roof etc or should I put some sort of sealer under that across the whole of the edge of the ply?

Thanks! ;D ;D ;D ;D

G'day Liz,

Obviously your question was too hard. Two days later and no bites!

cheers,
Al.

Hahaha!!! I know! I've read what seems like thousands of threads about what people recommend and think we've decided to go with the marine epoxy on the edges then sikaflex 912. Or sika-something 511... Or maybe 11fc... Then I'll ask another easy question like what paint to use!!!! ;d;d;d

i worked for a can seller and my job was to make sure it didn't leak ,now for the life of me i can't recall the name but it did come from barns at lansdown near liverpool and i never had a leak you only use a very small bead dam good stuff i'll see if i have its name somewhere im sure a call to barnes would solve the problem
