<p>The formula I used on my trailer floor was <br>
Turpentine 1 qt <br>
Boiled Linseed Oil 1 qt <br>
Pine Tar 1/2 pt <br>
Japan Drier 1/2 pt <br>
</p>
<p>It was expensive, but I did not want something that would be
sticky or catch a lot of dirt. After 2 years it still beads up
water and I can lay on it while working on a tractor or truck.
It was an $11K trailer, so I decided to take care of it.
Probably the only one I will ever buy like it. It has a
hydraulic tail that can pick up 10K and carry 4K, and the rest
of the deck can carry 25K. It also has hydraulic jacks that can
raise up the back of the truck if I have to change a flat. I
ordered the turpentine from some place in Georgia. It was the
clearest stuff I ever saw and smelled great. The pine tar was
the original Stockholm pine tar, not the stuff tractor supply
sells. It could pass for medicinal use it was so good smelling.
I got the rest at the local hardware store. The weather caught
up with me and the last coat I put on it was about 30 minutes
before a rain. I still have a quart of the Turpentine, I used
it on a calf the other day for a cut he got from a Longhorn..
It didn't appear to burn like I thought it would... Sorry I
ramble............<br>

wondering what everyone uses for a wood preservative for
wood trailer decks. I have seen the typical water
repellents, linseed oil, used motor oil and even anti
freeze recommended as a preservative. I was thinking of
a good latex house paint as they are typicall very
durable. </div>

<div style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;"> I am salvaging the
frame from an old pop-up camper to use for utility
trailer. The deck will be about 6' X 11'. I can use
3/4" treated plywood or 1X6 treated boards for about
the same cost. Which one will do a better job? </div>
