[QUOTE="skeet, post: 492336, member: 31990"] I don't know who was the originater of otf, but they invented something great. I did a 15 ft jon with it several years ago, and after curing out. Took a piece of the boat where i removed to put in a seat base. To home depot and had floor and deck enamel mixed to match the boat. That was 4 years ago. I redid it this summer and the plywood had small cracks on it. This time it soaked twice as much as before. I feel like this last soaking will last many years. To address your question on coverage, a little will go a long ways.on your first coating. I left my plywood after treating both sides originally to bake in the sun for a week before installing. Our summers here in ga get very hot seems like the plywood will soak up more if left out in the sun to bake. Btw i put the sealer over the top of the paint and it absorbed about twice as much as originally done. I have done a wheel chair ramp with it twice and it has held up great. Plans are to put another coat of paint over the last boat refinishing, in about a month, with a light dusting of sand for slip resistance. [/QUOTE]
