Why waterproof Ply?

Jan 24, 2006 21 Replies

ITYF the point about "boil proof" is that the ply is tested by boiling it, as an accelerated way of assessing its resistance to weathering.

I believe the difference between WBP and marine grade is that the wood used for marine grade will withstand constant immersion without rotting.

I thought the difference related more to the lack of voids and knots in marine grade - as the first poster quoted above implies.
