[Public-List] Interior Paint

[James Allocco via Public-List]

I have an Alberg, #565 with a liner.  There are a few areas I would like to
repaint, primarily in the storage lockers in the main cabin, so I
appreciate the information.  Living in NC the boat is in the water year
round. Its is not used and is closed tight December through February as we
are away for 6 weeks during the winter.  I use the MDS mold preventive
products and the water absorbing salt products,  and have learned to keep
the curtains drawn back to allow sun light in but I still get some mold on
the liner and teak.  The mold on the liner is no problem; I wipe  it down
with a Clorox spray. However in the past I had heavy mold on the teak and
bleached out the finish removing it.  I used to use teak oil to bring out
the luster but I suspect the oil might encourage mold growth. I prefer the
softer finish of the oil vs. varnish so I have done nothing for the past 4
years. Does anyone have a suggestion for finishing the teak. Would varnish
or Sikens be a better choice to mitigate the mold.  Of course mold was not
a problem when the boat was stored in upstate NY.

Thanks,
Jim Allocco
