Queen Mary Paint Removable for Graying Wartime Dress
The Queen Mary known as the Gray Ghost is stripped to bare metal for a 12 to 18 month refit to become a floating museum. Sand blasting removes flammable multi layer paint while a zinc coating primes the hull and a nonflammable final coat is planned before public opening. Local officials note a brown tint chosen by Alice, secretary to the city manager.
