Hi All

I've got a 1980 Enterprise sailing dinghy which has got some issues on the
deck, it would appear the varnish has lifted through the winter.
this has left several areas along the edge of deck looking very poor!

I need some advice please.

Do i need to strip all the deck surfaces and revarnish or just strip the
effected areas and reply the varnish?

Can some please give me a step by step of how they would approach this
problem!

Cheers Mark


1) Scrape deck
2) Sand deck.
2A) If deck is still stained, use a wood bleach and repeat step 2)
3) Varnish deck (don't use polyurethane)
