Waterproof decking / sheet material - where ?
Hi all,
On my trailer it's currently open down the centreline, and I would like to block it off. It's about a 10ft by 3ft hole.
First thought was just to use some 18mm sheet ply, but then that's not excatly going to last long. I then remembered you can get some waterproof
decking material that's used on boats and a like.
Anyone got any ideas where I can get some or any other low-cost alternatives ?
Cheers
Tris

It should last if you use marine or pressure treated ply.
Kindest Regards,

its got loads of trade names, but often goes under the Wisa names, so Wisadeck, Hexadeck etc etc
Which as said above it basically a phenolic coated patterned ply

all my trailers have had 19mm WBP ply, it's an exterior grade ply, and once it's had a coat of paint will last ages. Both trailers live
outside and one is over 10yrs old with only small amounts of degradation on the ply.

How about that bit of curvy white plastic that is currently covering it in your avatar? It would need a bit of flattening out first......
Or...sensible head on now.....what about some ally sheet?? - do you want to be able to walk on it, though?
