You guys might take a look at the spray-on bedliner stuff for a tough
weatherproof sealer.

Its a very good idea. However..the sun here in the desert is rather
strong during the summer months and putting a layer of "black" along the
entire horizontal cover does seem a bit counter intuitive. Perhaps some
of that white roofing foam?

BTDT. Woodpeckers love the foam roofing stuff. It sounds hollow
when they peck on it so they proceed and peck ****loads of holes all
over the roof.
Wood peckers? I dont think Ive seen one here in this area in the 35 yrs
Ive lived here. High desert doesnt seem to provide much fare for wood
peckers.

That was in Tucson, the Sonoran desert has plenty of Gila woodpeckers.

The best stuff I've used is Snow Seal.

That...looks very very good and exactly what Im looking for!

Many many thanks! Home Despot carries it one assumes? Ace Hardware is a
non starter, at least locally..given the horrendous markups they use.

That's where I bought it (HD) many moons ago.

I also noted Iron Coat. Is that a better product for my application?

No experience with that one.

Its a bit..pricey isnt it?

It used to be. Donno about today. It's really excellent stuff and worth the
$ IMO.
