In Response To: How about inlaying a real leaf? (Paul G. Jacobson)

I love the idea of inlaying a real leaf but not on the stripper...I'm going to do that on the VJ's deck this weekend. There are many deep red leaves available here right now. Maple trees aren't common here but hte University of Alberta has a few. Great idea, Paul! I'll also be doing the HBN trial coating this weekend...prolly late Friday night once I get home from work. If I can't get the leaf to lay down flat and steaming doesn't work, then I'll use plastic sheeting tightly duct taped to the hull.
