[QUOTE="nlb34, post: 500972, member: 33489"] Plywood is now epoxy coated. I have built stitch and glue boats before and used Clarkcraft Epoxy Plus which mixes 1:1. While I have had great success with this epoxy the smallest size sold is 1 gallon, which is expensive. I went with TotalBoat Penetrating Epoxy which appears to be commonly used to coat transom wood. The epoxy mixes 2:1 and is very thin, it certainly does soak in. I mixed 6 oz for each batch and using a foam roller I was able to easily coat each part within the 20 min working time. Once cured (2 days) I intend to mount and seal the transom with 3M 5200 as recommended. [img]https://i.imgur.com/ZGia5aS.jpg[/img] [img]https://i.imgur.com/XpvHBeA.jpg[/img] [/QUOTE]
