i am currently working on building a queen charlot 17 from pygmy boats. i was wondering in anyone has ever used a printed fabric in expoy resin to create a design over a hull of a kayak before. i'm quite sure someone has, and was wondering how it looked? i'm thinking of doing this to the bottom of my kayak instead of useing the standard fiberglass weave. i do intend to use the fiberglass weave on all the seams inside and out, but then cover it with a hawaiin print fabric. is this a disaster in the making? please let me know...brett
