Back to the bash at the deck, just used more turps and cotton buds to remove more wash, first photo is first go, 2nd is hopefully lighter and looks better???
Photos not wonky!!
Photos not wonky!!
As i do not drink, must have been the wine gums!!
Hoping for feedback, does it look ok or too dark???
Still got the main deck to do??
Hi Bob
Firstly good see wonkiness syndrome is fixed....
As odd as it sounds, on my phone the second shot looks a bit darker if anything....it might be my phone though....I quite liked the first attempt in any case.
Sorry I can't be of more help.
ATB.

HI STEVE if i remember rightly when i was on her about 20 yrs ago her deck were steel an painted green like my tigerCant help you there mate. The last time I was on a ship was HMS Belfast when I lived in London 40+ years ago :smiling5:
chris
That's probably why I dont remember the colour of the decking then :tears-of-joy: :tears-of-joy: :smiling5: :smiling5: :thumb2:
Actually we were on her a few years ago....I might have a be picture but you're right, I'm sure too it was steel...
I think I would expect lighter, as salt spray would lighten wood? The Graf was diesel powered so no coal to dirty the deck.
The photo is not the best and it does look lighter. Very pleased with the tonal variation of the planks but do think it should be a few shades lighter.
Will thin the deck wash for the rest of the deck, remember folks it a practice kit!!
