Floor & Seat Box

[DownSouthFun]

I have a 04 ZT213BR and need to replace floor deck and seat box. Has anyone considered using ADVANTEC. It is a composite plywood used in residential construction, very good water repelling properties, strong and holds screws very well even when exposed for extended periods to rain and weather. Not to concerned with the slight added weight.
I am also looking for some direction whether in video or discussion in floor board replacement and which epoxy resins show the best results.

Thanks in advance,

I don't think any resin, even epoxy, would adhere to advantec very well. I have a sheet left over from builinding my house and it seems almost waxy. You could try a test peice, and if it's sticks I don't see a reason you couldn't use it. It's not as strong as plywood but with enough glass on it I think you would be ok.

It won't rot like plywood that's for sure, but if it's continuously wet it WILL swell, a lot of people say it won't but I have seen it with my own eyes.

Thanks, it was just a thought knowing its abilities in construction environment. I have two spots that are soft however I suspect there may be more rot once I get the carpet pulled up. In your opinion, would you replace the entire floor et al.

I would check the whole floor and decide after that, at some point it's just as much work to patch as it is to do the whole floor. It's tough WORK to tear out good sections.

I didn't do the full core on my MX-15, just the bad spots.
