[QUOTE="shawnfish, post: 231007, member: 4468"] i have no doubt about nails popping up during different temps, and beleive me, i had that deck bolted down tighter than snot. and also it was only on there during the summer so temp fluctuations were very minimal and also there were no "white marks" on the little bench in the bow. i think the front bench was not affected because it sits about a inch and a half below level with the bench with the marks so i used a peice of solid plastic block on top of the alum. square tubing that supported the deck in the middle to level it. and not that im arguing with you but even it were caused by rubbing for that amount"marking" i beleive it would have taken a lot longer than 5 or so months to occur. i also did a lil research on the acidity of soda pop having any affect on aluminum, and plus it would have had to soak from the top then around the edge and back between the wood and aluminum through the carpet and that doesent sound very likely to me. and i cant remember spilling anything also....any more ideas would be nice cuz im out of them and still think it had to be the thompsons.( i cant wait for 5 months to go by to take my experiment apart and see the results) by).....
