Stain job
« on: June 01, 2018, 10:00:35 pm »
I use green and black rite dye mostly and with a light sanding it gives it some transparency !
Some like motorboats,I like kayaks,some like guns,I like bows,but not the wheelie type.

That'll work just fine. Pleasing to the eye. As stated don't place it on the forest floor...you may never find it again.
