<VV> CORVAIR CARDBOARD

[Andy Clark]

Don't forget to top-coat the epoxy on the upper surface of the package shelf
cardboard. Epoxy does not resist UV radiation at all well, but a top-coat of
paint will protect it.
Remember, the process I described is one I suggested for use on old
deteriorated cardboard. I particularly like it for door panels. This
cardboard is not easy to replace if you want to save your OEM vinyl panels.
For new cardboard, one can waterproof it with clear acrylic or something
similar.

can't imagine trying to save old cardboard. However, when I get new
cardboard I want to "protect" it somehow so that it will last a long time. I
have thought of spraying the back side and edges of new cardboard with some
kind of clear plasticoat that will be water resistant. Has anybody tried
protecting new cardboard?
