Re: Replacing Floor
When using Monocell, can I spray it on, or is it better to use a brush?
& that's quite alright @sharkbait

Re: Replacing Floor
Hey mouse, In and outboard sell grey carpet for $40/metre, but I think bunnings is around $35 anyway.. Not sure if places like Clarke rubber sell that sort of thing too. Can you throw a post up if you get some good prices. Cheers.

Re: Replacing Floor
When we did my old mans 5m CC we used marine ply and then coated with outdoor paint, the first coat was thick and we pushed the paint into the sides/ends of the ply with the brush to ensure a good seal. Then the 2nd and 3rd coats had non-slip stuff the paint to give you grip when the floor was wet. We painted it light blue and it didnt seem to get as hot as the carpet or stink either.MOUSE wrote:I am in the process of replacing the floor in my centre console, I am wondering what is the best sealant to use on the ply? The floor will then be covered in a marine carpet, I am thinking of going a two-PAC, but not sure
Thanks in advance
MOUSE
It went well for 5 years and was still solid as a rock when we sold it and the boat wasnt shed'd either

Re: Replacing Floor
Haha yep FNQ
Bunnings........ Between $35.00 & $41.00 depending on the quality, flat or ribbed
Check your local before abusing me about prices though
