Hi

I am restoring a 1946 Hunter Triple. I used Sikaflex-291 lot on the hull and the sides but this product says that it is not to be used on decks.
I wonder if you can recommend a product to use as a filler that will take paint or varnish. The deck on this boat has 2 inch strips of Honduras mahogany I want to fill the cracks and then paint white lines on the cracks followed by several coats of varnish.


:confused:

Sika-Flex did make a deck seam filler though i believe they have discontinuded it.
You could use 3M 5200 it will be fine

Instead of painting the lines might i suggest white pin stripe material. It will work well and you can varish over it i have seen it used and it looks good after wards
