TO SAVE PANELS
Special precautions were taken to safeguard the valuable panelling which is to be installed in the Cunard-White Star liner Queen Mary at Clydebank recently. To prevent the panels from warping owing to heat from steam pipes behind them they have been treated with steel solution sprayed from air guns. The steel-treated panel work was severely tested before the work of fitting it began, and it was found that it can resist the heat. To prevent moisture from steam forming on the walls of the ship’s bathrooms, “ wood-steel ” panels are to be fitted.
