: Here's a closer photo of the strips I'm using:
: 1st and 5th: untreated WRC
: 2nd: ebonized WRC
: 3rd: pine
: 4th: bleached WRC

: The bottom of each strip is wet which should be close to the
: epoxied version. The wet bleached seems to be even less
: different than the dry board which is a little disappointing but
: they will still work for my intended purpose.

I wonder if a very light sanding sealer can be used to fill the grain, reducing epoxy penetration for the bleached strips. May keep them light . . . but I would check that the epoxy will adhere first.
