[QUOTE="sonny.barile, post: 388205, member: 18154"] I have seen this stuff. My local HD sells sheets of it now. I found information online a few weeks ago because I was thinking of using it in my boat. Don't use it for flooring. It needs a lot more support framing underneath it. It sags when not supported enough and can crack. It also expands and contracts a lot from temperature change. Nothing will truly stick to it. You need to mechanically fasten it. It's main use is for stuff like boxes/chests or consoles on work boats. It doesn't stay pretty white long. It gets a black haze on it after a while. When making a box with it you can seal it by using 5200 as a caulk but not to hold it together. Hope this helps. [/QUOTE]
