Hi Sam
If you plan to use Pond Shield for that, please keep the following in mind:
1. It's recommended that you use fiberglass mat strips over each joint of the wood. These flex points can use the extra strength.
2. Most people forget that wood is very porous and water can soak in from either side. If you coat the inside only and do not at least treat the outside with some sort of water repellant, water can soak through from the outside (ie: rain) and cause problems with the coating from the back side of the application.
3. We recommend sanding the wood with at least 60-grit sandpaper or something even more coarse. This provides a nice tooth to the wood for the epoxy to grab hold of.
If you have any other questions, please visit our website or drop me an email.
Thanks,
Butch
