to stain or not

[lv4sailing]

OK I would like to stain my sail's will tea bags work or can I buy a stain for them that of course will not destroy them

Use Lipton, not Tetley lest you upset Sir Francis

Ahhhhhh....WHAT????

I prefer Twinnings English Breakfast -- produces a nice golden hue on 9 oz dacron.

Just curious... why do you want to stain your sails???


Personally, I'd recommend a good earl grey tea.

I know it's cheaper then sailcare. (g)

Hey, try red wine, much better than tea bags. What are you talking about!

Shannon.....it's one thing to waste tea (in fact, the American Revolution started that way), but it's quite another to waste good wine. Your suggestion is revolting.

Twinnings Irish Breakfast Tea is a bit more robust, but Bigelow's Cinammon Stick could impart a pleasant aroma.

Like the Dawg though, I'm curious about why you want to stain them.

You're right. Ok, how about Portugese red wine.
