Cannon Posted March 28, 2011 Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 Could be marine ply or WBP (Water boil proof) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddy Galore! Posted March 28, 2011 Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 think that'scalled "pourform" got a thin laminate to stop the concrete soaking in. different fron the trailer stuff tho but will still do the job nicely as it's waterproof.

If the name is correct we're on the right tack marine ply and wbp is ok for trailer floors but horse pee rots floors quickly thats why i want the stuff with the laminate on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the best Russ Most of the Plywoods on the market even the laminate or plastic coated ones will not be resistant for too long to a alloy or steel horse shoe. The most effective way but not the cheapest short term would be to use a standard 22 or 25mm treated WBP external quality plywood (WBP) refers to the adhesive used to bond the plies in manufacture and then install a seamless HD rubber mat . it might be worth considering something like Polymax or a similar HD rubber. http://www.polymax.co.uk/Horse_Stable_Matting_Stall_Mat/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
