What does this mean? wash pattern

[Cudos]

Top 2 cylinders have a larger wash pattern than bottom 2 cyl. Not a concern right now. Compression is #1-125 #2-130 #3-125 #4-130.

I know the compression is good, just not sure what wash pattern means.

Thanks

Are you talking about the crosshatch from final honing?

Sorry no pics or otherwise. These are just the remarks on the work order I received from the repair shop. They closed before I could ask them. I thought cylinders that were washed was because of water intrusion. I was curious as to why the top 2 cyl's would have a larger wash pattern than the bottom two. They also said it was not a concern at this time. So I'm assuming it was minor?

Cheers

The compression numbers are excellent, so why worry, unless water intrusion is still an issue?
