i have a atv trailer and i built sides for it form 2×3s and partical board. I use it for hauling tools, wood into some wet and muddy forest, swamp conditions. can i use deck stain but it will get scratched off the sides and floor form shit being thrown in it? or can i use the paint on bed liner for the floor and sides and just stain the outside 2×3s? or will teh bed liner not work?
Thanks
sorry its OSB
Particle board will not last the year, however, if you’re talking about OSB, I’d use a decent oil-based industrial grade paint.
A bedliner will look nice, but will do nothing to protect your wood framing.
Good luck…

not on OSB or Partical board….. but otherwise more than sufficient

I don’t know what those other guys are talking about but bed liner will work fine over wood. I’ve used it in my box vans that carry chemicals and it holds up for years. You will need to use at least 3 coats but it will make it water tight. You may want to look into a good epoxy paint also for the outside.
