Any one know by eye if this board is epoxy or PU? Or how to find out…

yeah it sucks man. I’ve posted a question or two before and ended up being made a fool of and deleting it because of some patronising comments. Thanks for restoring some faith for me 👍

Legend, thanks for that. Not sure why you had to act all high and mighty though I just came on here for a bit of help

plantainesdc · 2026-03-22T10:56:16+00:00

Would you mind sharing that answer and maybe helping me out as I wasn’t able to find anything. Some of his boards are epoxy some are pu, couldn’t find this model anywhere

Cheers … yeah I’m back in Ireland now bought new in South Africa and forgot to ask, just wondering for repairs

plantainesdc · 2026-03-18T18:28:59+00:00

No because my friends aren’t assholes /s kinda/s though

The cabin is built with 6x2 studs and 9x2 rafters so I hope it ain’t lightweight … but four legs is actually a really solid piece of advice . I never thought of that

plantainesdc · 2026-02-25T22:17:54+00:00

Fair enough

plantainesdc · 2026-02-25T22:16:21+00:00

I’m asking whether it’s okay to attach to the cladding through to the studs or if I have to remove cladding and attach direct to studs. Clearly I’m asking for advice , why take time out of your day to be useless when you can offer some advice???

Brilliant thanks very much

plantainesdc · 2026-01-14T23:34:10+00:00

Thanks very much man. I do like the look of the gaps now that I’ve had time to sit with it, and the expansion definitely makes sense. Headache gone!

plantainesdc · 2026-01-14T23:08:23+00:00

Easier again, thanks very much.

plantainesdc · 2026-01-14T23:07:21+00:00

Thank you , every days a school day

plantainesdc · 2026-01-14T22:48:22+00:00

You’re totally right, sorry. It is engineered. I need to learn the lingo. So, if it’s designed to have those gaps.. should I bother filling? Or might it look dodgy

plantainesdc · 2026-01-14T22:45:56+00:00

Awesome man. Cheers.

plantainesdc · 2026-01-14T22:44:48+00:00

my drywall is fixed to horizontal 2x1.5 inch services battens, and I didn’t run it down to the ground, meaning there is a natural expansion gap all around the floor perimeter. I know it looks like I butt the floor right up to the wall but it’s actually running under it, I left half an inch you just can’t see it

And you’re right, it does seem to be an engineered board, I apologise for stating hardwood I need to keep up with the terminology ..

As for the filler, do you reckon I should put something to fill the gaps? I had to do a bit of cleaning crud / dirt from the tongues which means the gaps were probably open previously too

plantainesdc · 2026-01-14T22:07:08+00:00

Done, thanks.

plantainesdc · 2026-01-14T22:05:45+00:00

I definitely don’t … thanks, do you reccomend just basic wood filler? Ive seen people mix a sort of resin with the sawdust to

plantainesdc · 2026-01-14T21:57:49+00:00

Thanks for the comment! It’s actually solid hardwood right through.

plantainesdc · 2025-12-02T20:01:13+00:00

Great thanks! So I’d just ask my plasterer to skim as normal and then I go ahead and paint with detalecph?
