These color samples are to compare online color samples with the actual colors resulting from painting them on a sample of polyester cloth. The cloth is the same material used to cover a Skin-On-Frame West Greenland Kayak as seen in a previous link on the front web page. There are extra pigments in the samples above, mainly blue and a couple greens which may be examined for possible coating the kayak.

If you click on any photo you will get a popup window that can be dragged around to place next other images for color comparisons. When a second (or more) window is opened, the previous window/s will drop behind or to the side of the main window. These windows may be clicked to the front and moved independently for comparisons. Depending on your browser, if the opened window has a pointer as a "+", clicking will expand the photo, not the popup.

Color samples on a frame of polyester material similar to the kayak skin. The pigment mixture was 2 oz of Varathane (polyurethane) Oil-Based Clear Floor Finish, with one teaspoon of color pigment mixed in. One panel was just the Varathane with no pigment, labeled natural.
