    Re: PVC sheets

    I tried that in Dallas and it was surprisingly expensive. I even told them I didn't care about color so they could spray it as part of another job, but they would only bill me the full cost per sq ft which is surprisingly high. I ended up using some Benjamin Moore rubbery waterproof coating which worked well for about 2 years until I moved. I will probably end up doing the same except with some other coating. The sink I need here is much smaller like 12 inches by 4 feet.

    The one sink I ever built for myself I painted with epoxy paint I probably got from Home Depot. Worked like a charm. I even painted it away from my mini lab and then transported it there. No leaks or anything.

    As the sink size you search for is not too big maybe you will be able to find something in stainless steel from used restaurant equipment.

    Looks like you can buy the spray on liner in an aerosol can and do it yourself. It's around $14 a can.

    Re: PVC sheets

    Here is a tip a professional darkroom builder gave me for a very chem resistant, durable paint that is very easy to apply, paints on very smooth (with a brush) very low fumes while drying, and cleans up & lasts very well;

    It will seal wood (and metals, plastics, etc) well... I have used it for wet side finishing and it's great!!! And inexpensive!!!

    I have gotten it in grey, but I don't see it on their color chart now... (Ask them about it...)

    You gotta be kidding... Is this the Beverly Hillbillies decide to add a darkroom sink that the goats can drink from?

    Re: PVC sheets

    I was just wondering if anybody has tried using white shellac to to treat the wood. I`m planning a 2ft x 8ft plywood sink. I`ve used it to treat some balcony boards that where starting to rot and the shellac sealed the wood beautifully.
