[QUOTE="driz, post: 414323, member: 13373"] Note, I used regular CDX ply for my build since I keep my boats inside barns. I did make sure it was a nice piece and then hit it with the belt sander so it was nice and smooth. When I shot it with Raptor it looked great. Fast forward a year and note the fine cracking which is evident. It actually looks worse than the picture indicates. It's a boat not a Bently so I don't get all excited but still at some time I will be putting down vinyl I am pretty sure just to keep the water from getting into the wood. There must be something in Raptor that is quite wood unfriendly to do this so anybody considering this option may want to keep this in mind. It does work great on the console and alumimum structures though and is stone simple to put on like a pro. It's excellent for hiding repairs on cracked panels after they are repaired due to it's rough nature. [/QUOTE]
