USN Deck Stain.
Niko's little 1/350 Mine Sweeper features a really nice wooden deck in natural wood. A lot of these ships wore Measure 14, but I really didn't want to paint over the wood. I found airbrushing a light coat of Fiebing's Light Blue Leather Dye worked well (at least to my eyes). They also have a Navy Blue that would be more actuate, but I wanted a sun-bleached and fading look and was worried might not show the planking as well.
