I am at the end of my budget and my wits. I need to replace about six oval
VCP hatch covers and two to three 7.5 inch round covers. I have stored them
inside, outside, in a/c, out of a/c, but under cover, with 303, with armor
all and without. And you know what? In FL, in eight months, they rot, they
crack, they leak and in the end they cost. A lot.
Any suggestions from the group on proven replacements, improvements,
coverings, coatings or caulkings? I know Dave Bracken covered his with some
sort of spray rubber or something but I cannot find Dave! Any help would be
greatly appreciated.
