What is it for? Are you needing it to stay looking good?


I'm doing a crawfish table, that I plan to store outside when not in use.

I figure I'll go ahead and buy a gallon of some exterior paint and throw a coat or two of it one too.

I would paint that up really good. Put many coats on it. Lots if water and abuse on something like that.

Yeah I was going to say if a full sheet of flat hardibacker would do the trick use that. Water resistant in itself and with one layer of primer and paint youd be good to go.

But if this is going to be something you use a good bit and might be a little ruff with then just put a couple coats of the primer you bought a couple of coats of the paint and youll be alright. Its just plywood tends to swell with water. And it aint no thang to put another coat of paint on it down the road.
