It is the ship's version of shaving off a two-day stubble.

Yes, nice clean up for sure. :) It's fun to see before and after shots.

I was fixated on the great peeling YELLOW paint in the first. Now that it's all spiffed up I'm not sure it's as "charming"! LOL

Good job! Hope they didn't just do the paints only.

The TITO looks (looked) like it has been through a lot. Sounds like an important job it has.

It's amazing the difference 10 days makes VP, what a brilliant 'thinking ahead' idea to show the second image after the refurb!!
