Re: Stus-List V&1/4 Berth Refinish

Bob. Some years ago, I rebuilt a q-berth for a client and used pebble board to top it.  My thinking was the rough surface would allow moisture to exit from under the cushions.  Seemed to work fine but was a bear to stick down.  I used contact cement.  If I had it to do again, I'd use an adhesiv
