Filling screw holes on trailer floor

[7lazy77]

Just got a "new" used trailer & didn't like the truck bed liner glides that were on the floor, so I replaced with better ones. Any recommendations on what to use to fill the old screw holes??

I am interested in this also. I am going to paint my floor. I was thinking some sort of caulk?

Caulk or liquid nails works good.

Please re-think painting your floor. I have paint in my trailer and would never do it again. Sure, it looks pretty good until you spin the track and leave black marks all over - then it gets cold and the paint is slick as he--. I have slid down the ramp on my rear several times because it is so slick. You will be much happier if you just leave the plywood alone.

I have a Charmac and the floor was painted at the factory. I will be adding sand to the paint to help with that issue. Thanks for the heads up.

Liquid nails is cheap enough to fill the holes. Can also use any kind of silicon ement. Gorilla Glue is great. Think the cheapest is Liquid Nails.


For the floor in our trailer used fiberglass epoxy diluted to soak into the wood and mixed it with sand. When it was tacky before drying on the second coat ran a roller brush on it to make it rough.

The ruff finish with the sand work well.

Back on the boat they did not use sand. They used lead shot and it melted into the epoxy.
