: Anyone ever try using analine dyes on their kayaks?

: I have used it for years in furniture making. The clarity of dye, as opposed
: to stain, is remarkable. I am toying with the idea of tinting my lightly
: colored cypress strips to be a little darker.

Hi Chuck, I haven't tried it myself but West System has done some dye and stain testing. You can read all about it in Epoxyworks Magazine. The current issue has some info as well as issue #18.
