Don't worry Chief, if you stop by the main companionway where the cutouts are sprucing up the paint on the lifeboat, you can get them to give your overalls a quick lick of white gloss. This will hide the oil and grease stains, and make them stiff enough to put a crease in the trousers. It will save time removing them and soaking them in a bucket of starch. They are using some newly formulated quick drying acrylic water based stuff with an aroma of Old Spice aftershave. Next week they will be testing some paint with that great smell of Brut, (as Joe Namath* used to say in the adverts.)
*Joe Namath was the star Quarterback of the New York Jets in the 1970's. He also advertised his own brand popcorn maker. Quite the celebrity was Joe in his day.
