Raft Deck Board Restoration: Epoxy & UV Finish | Spring Gear Maintenance Guide
Spring is here, and it's time to bring your raft gear back to life. In this step-by-step guide, I walk you through restoring raft deck boards using penetrating epoxy and UV-protective finish to extend the life of your gear and keep it river-ready all season.
In this video, I take you through a complete raft deck board restoration as part of a spring rafting gear maintenance plan. Maintaining quality gear isn't just about looks - it protects your investment and keeps your setup reliable and on the water.
This restoration includes:
- De-rigging deck boards safely
- Belt sanding old epoxy with 80 and 120 grit progression
- Cleaning surfaces for proper adhesion
- Mixing and applying penetrating epoxy
- Understanding chemical bonding windows between coats and the difference between chemical and mechanical bonds
- Proper cure timing before UV coating
- Applying UV-resistance Halcyon finish
- Why UV protection matters for raft deck longevity
If you run whitewater, fish from your raft, or spend long days in the sun, this process helps prevent cracking, water intrusion, and premature deck board failure.
This video is part of a full spring maintenance series designed to keep your gear performing its best from season to season.
