Re-Restoring wood bed...?
I am reaching out for some collective knowledge;
I just looked back on forum, I did my restore of my truck starting in 2009 and into 2010. IE, about 12 years ago. At the time, I installed Classic Industries Red Oak wood floors and chrome strips/bolts. 5 coats of Spar Clear Urethane. I got huge compliments on how amazing my bed was; Fast forward to today (12 years later); Not as amazing anymore. The Urethane is starting to fail I suspect. In any case, the wood, where it is exposed to air, is discoloring. My truck is a garaged kept truck, I bring it out about 2 weeks total per year for shows. Never sees water unless it is washing it. We do get serious sun here, but only 2 weeks per year tops... HERE ARE MY QUESTIONS; 1. Can this wood be saved? 2. Should I have re-applied urethane? How often? 3. Should I buy new wood and abandon this wood? 4. If I buy new wood, is this old wood worth anything? 3 PICS ATTACHED: 1. Original bed pic after install. 2. Pic of bed now. 3. Close-up. Thoughts? Any experience with this? |
