Improving, one room at a time

Or one hallway at a time. I'm working on the engine room hall which is centered aft of the galley. The "smoking permitted above decks" sign is almost off. It's coming off in small chunks. I think it's been there for a while. I've primed the starboard side of the hall and will be sanding and priming the rest in a few minutes. It appears that the wood was pickled quite a while ago. The current color is sort of a mottled orange in places and beige in others. I'm going high gloss interior/exterior white just like I did in the owners' stateroom. Should be a a nice result and resemble fiberglass with a gel coat thereby updating the wood. I love wood, but a narrow hallway needs light. This solves that issue. The floor has been covered with an old tablecloth...that is not my flooring. :)
