All the original inside hull surfaces I have seen on C's are gelcoat. Previous Owners may have left their own indelible imprint. Now that velvet art is so cheap, I'm thinking of lining all our cabinets in fuzzy Elvis and elks.

Re: Stus-List Engine Room Original Paint (Damian Greene)
I’ve seen velvet paintings of a big-rig where it all lights up. Wouldn’t it be cool to have a lighted velvet painting of your C? I used the Interlux bilge coat on my 27. Standing up very nicely. But the fumes during application! Make sure you have a good OV respirator. I consider myself lucky that the old wrap on the wet exhaust on my Atomic 4 wasn’t asbestos when it vibrated off. I had it tested before tearing into the rest of it. But if by some miracle the exhaust had been original .
