Question On Aircraft Tie-Downs, Carl Vinson, 1986

Building base for 1/72 Tomcat, USS Carl Vinson, 1986.
I've noticed in older photos of carrier decks that the aircraft tie-down points were painted white. Does anyone know if they used to also paint the depression under the tie-down point white as well, or was it the same color as the deck? Seems like today they are all the same color as the deck, or maybe a dark gray. But for my dio I'm doing a mid-80s Carl Vinson.
TY,
Dave
