It is time for my companionway sliding hatch to be redone after 30+ years. It is constructed with the smoked acrylic (or Lexon) is sandwiched between teak with self tapping screws.
I have taken the whole thing apart, cleaned the teak and am ready for the next steps which would be varnishing the teak and reassembly with sealant.
What would be the best sealant to use - Dow 795 (black) or Butyl Tape (Grey color may be visable through Acrylic) or one of the Boat Life products?
Also, should I seal (using West System 207 hardener/ 105 resin) and varnish before applying sealant or after only on exposed teak of hatch?
Thanks for the advice.
