[QUOTE="Ray Clark, post: 511311, member: 31103"] I, too, looked at marine ply when I needed.to redo decks a couple years ago. The price scared me off. Instead, I used exterior-rated BCX ply. The real difference between BCX and marine ply is that marine ply is supposed to be free of voids while BCX will have voids, sometimes numerous voids depending on supplier quality. Marine ply will usually also have higher quality face veneers. Since I was covering up the ply with a covering, I didn't really care. I did fill some surface voids with Bondo before coating the ply with fiberglass resin. I paid particular attention to edges to preclude water absorption into the plies. [/QUOTE]
