John Stevens Posted July 16, 2006 Posted July 16, 2006 I feel funny asking but have to know the answer. If I'm just using glass to cover the inside of my pram to keep it from checking does it have to be glass? Can I epoxy any kind of material, like fabric? Could I go to joanne Fabrics and grab a piece of silk? The glass is not for strenght, the outside is already glassed. It's just to keep the wood from checking on the inside. TIA, John Quote
Charlie Jones Posted July 16, 2006 Posted July 16, 2006 John I suppose you COULD do that, but a light weight (even a 4 oz) glass cloth would be better, and probably easier to work with. By the way- on the sole of the dink- I'd NOT try to fill the weave- makes a pretty good nonskid with just one coat. Quote
kydocfrog Posted July 19, 2006 Posted July 19, 2006 I've wondered about that myself in some applications. Before there was all this epoxy and glassing stuff there was canvas and paint, particularly on decks, and it seemed to last for years... DocA. Quote
Charlie Jones Posted July 19, 2006 Posted July 19, 2006 Yeah but- it required almost continuous watching and prompt maintenance. Epoxy/glass is way better. Trust me. Quote
