Wood Floor in a box truck... Help.
Hey Everyone,
After preforming a little search on the net and coming up with no results, I decided to post the question here. So, I bought this box truck for my business It's a 99 Chevy 2500HD diesel with a Mickey 12 foot box on the back. The truck is in overall okay condition except for the floor in the box which is completely rotted out in spots and has big gaping holes. My idea is just to cut out the floor and replace with 12X2 pressure treated lumber. After cutting out the rot, I noticed this flooring is really tough stuff. Each of the eight 12" planks is comprised of 1"X1" pieces laminated together. I'm wondering if the pressure treated lumber will be a good replacement since the hardwood laminate they used looked so robust. Although, It did rot easily. The next question is I was thinking of Thomson's Water Sealing the bottom of the planks since they are exposed to the elements to keep it from rotting as fast. Will that work? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks! Adam
