We have managed to basically complete the frame for my daughter's SOF. We ordered the material (9 oz. Polyester) from Dyson and have the coaming stock soaking. The project has been a really great father/daughter project and has moved really fast.
Now the question: My daughter wants her boat to be blue. Does anyone have any advice on the best coating for polyester fabric. Morris recommends using artist paints to tint polyurethane, but that is for nylon skins. Any wisdom is appreciated.

Marcel
