John:
I look forward to seeing the frame. The best advice I got on tinting was from Shawn Baker who advised me to go to Home Depot with my jelly jar and get the tints for the exact color from them (for free). I plan on putting the first coat of oil-based poly clear to ensure good sealing of the skin, then tinting subsequent coats.

Andrew (and the rest of your clan) are surely welcome to give the boat a try at R2K3.

Regards,

Marcel
