[QUOTE="JLeephoto, post: 488326, member: 8856"] To seal plywood multiple coats of penetrating epoxy making sure to get edges. Raka has good kits/prices. Be sure to read the details on the catalyst choices. http://www.raka.com/epoxy.html Lots of rigging shops use 5200 to seal bolt holes and it seems to work reasonably well but what DaleH said is how to do it right according to most boat builders. Ie: Overdrill holes, fill with epoxy, redrill center of epoxy plug for bolts. This way there’s no way you’re getting water in the wood. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro [/QUOTE]
