The Floor Boards: Old original boards have been painted a powder blue to make a pretty but practical floor. You can buy specialist Floor paints in lots of colours the Floor boardsse days, or simply apply a couple of coats of emulsion the Floor boardsn seal with a tough acrylic varnish. Just remember that any pale Floor shows up marks and crumbs easily, so will need more attention than dark boards would do.

On The Other Hand See Ocean Floor That:This out¬ward movement could push continental blocks apart or push previous ocean Floor rocks be¬neath the continents, which would explain the comparatively young age of the rocks on the ocean floor. In the Pacific Ocean, for example, the new ocean Floor seems to spread outward from a great ridge known as the East Pacific Rise. As the new Floor moves outward, the older seabed ahead of it should be forced downward into the deep trenches that ring the Pacific Ocean.
Assuming that the newly forming crust at oceanic ridges picked up the prevailing polarity signal of the earth's magnetic field, the result over a long period of time would be strips of ocean Floor that were alternately normally and reversely magnetized. The correspondence between the patterns on the ocean Floor and the known history of the earth's magnetic field is too remarkable to be due to chance [4].
