[QUOTE="bonz_d, post: 400708, member: 11276"] The mineral spirits and linseed oil are fairly inexpensive and the spar can be bought by the pint can. What really makes this work is the linseed oil while the mineral spirits thins down the Spar and allows it all to penetrate the wood pores. Once dried it can be painted or covered with Spar urethane.

As a test I left them out in the weather, uncovered, in the rain and sun. I realize that this is just a short time frame but as I hope you can see there has been no change to the finish or water intrusion. Though you can see tat the top side of the ply is dirty from wear and walking on it. [/QUOTE]
