I plan on ripping the pbt off one of my old skates. What is the best and cheapest way to seal the bottom. Will resin work ok?

if you can, get a nice fatty sheet of 9 oz fiberglass and lay that beach on it with some epoxy and you should be set, if you want it shiny put a coat on it. have fun man

not to steal the thread but instead of making a whole new one. I just got my 06 mcguck and the are what look like "pressure cracks" on the bottom of the board. Not very big at all maybe a millimeter or so should i seal those? how?

I have recently started pressing my own boards with Trevor T, and what I do with all our boards is insted of sealing them with just resin we also lay 5 oz fiberglass around the WHOLE board to pervent water logging and we have found it makes it snap better Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy
