Rob, The cedar ceiling around one of our chimneys became water stained. Every one gave me advice ranging from oxalic acid to 40 grit paper. A 50-50 solution of white vinegar and water did the trick. I used a spray bottle and got the wood good and soaked. This did the trick and it is hard to tell there was any staining or corrective action. Fixing the chimney leak was more challenging.
Good luck, Ron Ron Ricci S/V Patriot C&C 37+ Bristol, RI ron.ri...@1968.usna.com -----Original Message----- From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of robert via CnC-List Sent: Wednesday, April 26, 2017 9:12 AM To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Cc: robert Subject: Stus-List Water Stained Floor Board My floor boards are the usual teak and holy veneered. Some years back I painted the bottoms and sides with resin. However I forgot/missed one side on one floor board and of course, water got in and dark stained an approx. 1 square foot section. I presume I have two options to deal with the darkened section, 1) replace the floor board, or 2) live with it. Question: is there a 3rd option I am not aware of?
