I didn't use any? Posted By: Seth Dabney, 2023-C, Oxford, MS Date: 5/21/08 9:21p.m. Report: outside forum guidelines In Response To: Did you use straight 5200 the length of your trunk? (nm) (Gary, Santana 2023, Milwaukee) Just screws, epoxy, and glass to seal the floor back in place. Maybe you mean on top of the trunk. I used some thinckened epoxy there too, but no glass. Here is what my little cutout looked like when closing after working on the centerboard trunk. And here after closing, before sanding and painting the floor. If you look closely you can see a couple of the cut backup strips from the job 3 years before in the first picture (closeup below). Seth
