Not sure. Can't remember if Chris who runs CLH recommended anything in particular. Basically anything that will stick and keep water out. I just used it for an outside notice board so used good old fashioned creosote. Probably not desirable in your use case though. Ed

I used that rubber roof seal type stuff when I did my trailer floor. Holding up quite well so far despite being out in all weathers. It’s very thick and paints on with a brush.
PS. 130 looks great! |

Previously have used sadolins classic stain to seal the edges of buffalo board and its non brand equivalent.
Not sure how the roof rack deck is, no longer my vehicle. However the stair landing deck was doing fine last time I used it. |

Dropped off for painting, all quite exciting to finally get the outside finished.

Great transformation and a great lot of work you have done JST
The 130 will look good with the paint done Clayton.

What rims did you get in the end James? Look like zero offset wolfalikes? (although that side picture, they look wider)
