[C320-list] Comments on older C320 "floors"

[Peter Clancy]

I have hull #222 and the surface of my cabin sole has discolored around several of the screws and in few other spots. It appears that water or moisture infiltrated these areas and eventually mildewed. I've tried unsuccessfully to bleach these areas. Nor do I think the veneer is thick enough to allow one to completely sand these spots away. I've considered fitting and gluing down, to each floor panel, one of the synthetic teak and holly sole veneers. Has anyone else tried this? Once down, it should last forever.

  Go easy on the sanding it's just  a very thin laminate on  the sole.
