    More Wood Grain...

    I picked up some Pow +'s from Inspector Gadget(thanks) and decided to jump on the bandwagon and do a wood grain topsheet. I think the problem is getting the edges of the contact paper to stay down. So far I have 4 coats of clear enamel on each ski and will probably do two more.

    Some Epoxy for the top sheet

    I think the secret to longevity on these contact paper jobs is to inset the edge of the paper about 1/2" so you get that cool '07 Sugar Daddy look. It might reduce the likelyhood of peeling them up the first time you drag your inside edge down the topsheet.
