JayDub Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 CDX plywood coated with a couple coats of fiberglass resin, as robe said, would work just fine... keeps all the water out. It is also ALOT cheaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travlin_Man Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 Check out a local independent lumber yard. Ask them about AC, or BC plywood, this is a lot stronger , lighter and will lie flatter than CDX. A little more expensive, yes but not near as pricey as marine grade. A cabinet makers supply house is another good source. Good luck with your project. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
