      Q:Can I cover this with a sun reflecting paint the same type you would ordinarily use on a roof.

      Answer This Question

      A:  Nick, although we understand that you may want to paint this Pressure-Treated plywood, we would recommend against painting and staining. In terms of your question, we unfortunately do not have any testing to support how the plywood may react to this type of paint, so we cannot recommend this method of installation. However, if you do decide to proceed with painting, please make sure that the wood is completely dry beforehand. You can easily check the dryness of the wood by sprinkling water droplets on the surface. If the water is absorbed, then the wood is ready for painting. If the water forms beads on the surface, it means that the wood is still too wet to be painted.
