Hi everyone!
I am in the Panhandle of FL (so no real extremes in winter) and just purchased a 2002 22' C-class Gulfstream Ultra. It had hideous carpet in it, which I pulled up. There is also sheet vinyl, which ran halfway under the carpet that I will be removing. I want to replace the floor with peel and stick vinyl planks (already purchased). So far the plywood looks like it is pretty sound, although in one corner it was damp - not rotten. I am going to be recaulking the entire outside with Dicor, even so, I feel like I should put a waterproofing membrane on the plywood. I may need to level it with a self-leveling compound as well, since these are peel and stick (not floating) planks.
I'd like to get some advice on whether or not I need both products (any brand name recos will be most welcome) and WHICH ONE GOES ON FIRST? Seems like the waterproofing would have to go directly onto the plywood, and if it needs self-leveling, then that would go on top, and then put down the planks. Is that correct?
Thanks in advance - happy to have such a rich pool of experience to draw on!
Thanks all!
