Flight Deck - HMS / HMCS Warrior, circa 1946

Hey folks,
I'm currently building a 1:48 Seafire Mk XV in RCN service circa 1946. It was assigned to HMCS (formerly HMS) Warrior, a Colossus class aircraft carrier.
I want to make a base representative of the Warrior's flight deck, but I'm having a heckuva time trying to determine what her flight deck would have looked like at the time (i.e. colour, construction materials, etc).
Other than a few vague B&W pics, the closest I've come so far is reading that she was fitted out to trial a rubberized flight deck in 1948.
Can anyone help me out?
Thanks.
