Hi,
I just bought a sheet of 3/4" pressure treated plywood for my trailer deck. I suppose I could just bolt it on and call it done. However, I would like to paint or stain it.
Looking for recommendations...
Should I worry about the underside, or just leave it as is?
Better to paint or stain?
Is epoxy paint a good choice for the topside of the deck?
I've heard of people using spray-on bedliner on trailer decks. Would that work on wood, or is it only designed for steel surfaces?
I've also heard mixed opinions about how long PT wood should dry out before staining or painting. I plan to let it sit until it feels dry. We're having a hot/dry spell here in western NY, so it shouldn't take long.
Thanks,
Doug
