: Went to Rutabaga in WI today to have a paddle repaired and test a
: couple of CLC and QCC boats today, and I grabbed a CLC catalog.

: I noticed a boat by John Beck where he dyed some of his deck, but
: not other sections. This isn't the same picture, but you can
: make out the area on the deck near the cockpit where he's dyed
: the blonde wood turquoise.

: I thought this was a no-no because the dye bleeds? I see a white
: detail line between the dyed and undyed sections, so I suppose
: if the bleeding was narrow enough one could paint the bled
: section prior to fiberglassing.

: Anybody know how else this might work? I really like the look of
: dyed wood, but figured it was the whole thing or nothing, due to
: the bleeding when exposed to epoxy.

Hi Steve,
