    Floatation foam or Not?

    Oh its accessible, but not without several additional steps from getting Interprotect from Barbours . I also use it for several other applications and keep it hanging around. The stuff has proven to be some pretty rugged stuff over the years since I began using it in the 80s. As a side note...

    Floatation foam or Not?

    Hey the weather is great today, nice and cool, which also helps to reduce the itching from any grinding. :roll: :lol: But anyway along the lines of coal tar epoxy, its pretty hard to get around the area. So as a substitute for the tank coatings, go over to Barbours in Beaufort and pick up some...

    Glassing in a front seat?

    The finish work to match is the key element that will probably be several times over what the raw construction cost would be. The advantage is you want to have any to sway you is that you can allow a lot of the seat tops to be across the flare which helps save on deck space. A lot also depends...

    If you know how to operate a sander, and willing to do the prepwork, then offer one of the car painters just spray it, even with enamel. I bet you could check around, and find that to be an alternative.
