   Hi Bob,
   
   from memory I used either meths or isopropyl alcohol, then detergent then hosed it out and let it dry for a few weeks. I know i had to be a bit 'severe' with it, but the hull needed a major rebuild, and f/glassing, so I wasn't too worried.
   If you use Zinsser stain blocker undercoat, it will cover what remains no problem. You can then overcoat it with an enamel.

   Hi JB,
   
   It looks like your Fairacre was previously powered by an IC engine and so you had an oil soaked hull to clean up.
   
   The interior certainly looks nice and clean now, so I was wondering what method you used to clean the oil soaked wood?
   
   I have a restoration model with really oily hull and I need to find the best way of cleaning the wood so that I can make some repairs that will need the PVA glue to be able to penetrate the wood fibres.
   
   Bob.

   You have made a really nice restoration JB.
   
   Another Classic Model Power Boat has been saved, and she looks beautiful - well done 👍
