Removed the teck (actually Narra in my case) with an air chisel. Removed
all the screws ( about a thousand), filled the holes. Filled and faired,
primed
and then painted and applied non-skid.

Air chisel, good idea.

The wood was bedded with polysulfide. Taking it up with the air chisel
resulted
is an impressive pile of toothpicks. My particular boat was not originally
designed
for a wood deck, so under the wood was gelcoat. No need to lay additional
glass other than to repair a few bad spots.
