[Public-List] Interior/Cabin Paints

[Jonathan Bresler via Public-List]

Thank you all very much for the information.  Very useful.

Maurice the cedar strips sound good and my wife approves "I love the smell
of cedar!".
Looks like Chesapeake Light Craft and other places offer Western Red Cedar
3/4" by 1/4"
by 6' to 8' at $38.00 for 80 linear feet.   Huge difference vs the price of
teak.   And CLC is local.

Keep the ideas coming!

Jonathan
