I'm moving into a new show/garage that has normal drywall as the wall coverings.
I think that in the machine shop part of the shop I'm going to be slinging
around
a fair amount of oil and would like to cover the sheetrock with some kind of an
oil proof or at least oil resistant covering. I had originally thought of using
thin
shower board from Home Despot. However the contractor that's been working of the
new house had mentioned FRP (fiberglass reinforced panels) which is also
available
from the box stores. One thing I don't like about the FRP is that the side that
faces the room is textured and I was hoping to be able to treat all the walls as
a giant whiteboard. The backside of the FRP is pretty smooth but with a tiny bit
of a cloth like texture. This might be a good surface to the room side of the
walls
but I don't know if the adhesive used to attach the stuff to the wall will stick
to the heavily textured side.
Has anyone used either FRP or shower board on the walls of a shop?
Any other suggestions?
Drew
