: {For the curious and nervous....} I have a couple of boards, given to me this summer by Marine City {officially and with their blessing...as they were dredging along the Rivers edge and pulled these up and were in the process of bashing them into little pieces to jam them behind what is now their new sea wall, when I saw them and asked for them...O.K?..now that we are clear on THAT!} I saw someone on here complaining about a piece of shipwreck in Copper Harbor, crumbling due to lack of preservation.....and glycol? was mentioned.
: What is that? Is that is best thing I can use to preserve my boards? They will be outside {they aren't very pretty, having been partially burned at one time I think}. Any constructive ideas would be appreciated.
