I plan to epoxy or polyurethane seal pressure treated wood for my small trailer bunks. Metal salts in the wood can play havoc with the galv. Am drying out the bunks at the moment. Will be interesting to see how it goes, but the bunks were not expensive if it doesn't work. $5 each.

The complexities are endless!
There are only two seasons in Vermont: boating season, and boat-building season.
