Question:

can you tell me the proper width of carpet to work on a 2x6inch board? I have a 27ft pontoon and would like to replace all of the boards. Also... Treated lumber or untreaded?

Expert Reply:

For 2 x 6 bunks you'll want the 18-inch width carpet # CE11349 in order to have full wrap-around coverage without exposed wood.

As for wood, using treated could extend the life of the your bunk boards, but you will be also looking a higher cost then using untreated wood.

The 18' CE Smith # CE11349 is the longest roll we have available. I really wish we had a single roll that could cover your boards, but the best we can offer is to just obtain two for full coverage - then you'll at least have some extra for a future project/maintenance.
