me and my dad have been arguing if ATF (automatic transmission fluid) would waterproof wood i said that it wouldnt, and he said test it and find out..... so out at my dads shop, i found a 2x4 took a rag and rubed in some ATF all the way around it on half of the 2x4, left the other half just plain so i could compare it to somthing, let it dry for like 5 mins, dunked it in water for like 5 mins, and ill be damned if when i pulled it out the water just roll off my wood on the half i treated with ATF
in conslusion i am going to be using ATF on the underside of my wood in my boat! just use a paint brush or roller and put a couple coats in! cheap easy method of water proffing
Hint i doubt you can paint to wood after treating it thou, i dose leave a little oily residue, thats why im using it on the underside and putting grizzly grip on top!
