[DeTomaso] Door cards.

[Scott Mead Photography]

I know my door cards don't have a plastic backer (and really should). What
would be the best vapor barrier to use? Tyvek, 3-mil polyethylene sheeting
or something else?

Mahalo,

Scott

Michael,

Water is designed to flow through the doors. There are drains at the bottom
which should be clear, and any debris in the door should be vacuumed up to
keep from turning to mud which rusts the doors from the inside. 

The only reason for the plastic is to prevent rainwater/washing water from
soaking the back side of the card. It should therefore be retained.
