Home Depot only had Charcoal, Blue, and Green.
Remember, road dirt and crap will stain anything. I have seen it make nice red carpets on trailers look nasty. |
I have the same question as Insptech....Has anyone tried using those gray recycled plastic 2X4's for bunk replacements? I would think they would be a great replacement as they will never rot and don't hold water. The only concern I would have is are they as stron as the real thing?
Any ideas??? |
Plastic wood?
The Plastic wood you refer to is commonly known as "TREX" and it's made close to home. It is not as stucturally strong as wood- for instance 2x6 decking can only be laid on 16" centers where most codes allow 24" centers for treated pine. The boards also have a slightly convex surface so your hull would not be uniformly supported. I do think it's great for decking, especially if you're in it for the long haul.
A concern I have is with dirt, bird droppings etc. If it gets on a carpeted bunk it will have some give or a place to go beneth it. With these alternative bunks it is held firmly against your gel coat where normal wiggling will allow abrasion. treated wood should last quite a while for trailer bunks. |
