: While I think the dying part would be do-able, it may lead to problems during
: or after skinning. I have personally had poor experience with pre-died
: cloth intended for things other than SOF kayaks, but none of those
: instances involved nylon or dying the fabric myself. I know that a couple
: of folks over at qajaqusa tried to tie-die a kayak skin before sewing onto
: a kayak frame, but I cannot recall the outcome.

It was Jack Gilman. You can do a search on QUSA. I know that it didn't live up to his expectations, but I think that was mainly because of the color. I can't remember if he had any info on working with the nylon once dyed.

Dying after stretching is pretty easy. I can't imagine even where to find a container large enough to hold all of the nylon. Garbage can maybe?
