: Well don't keep us in suspense, Lee!

If you want some very good wear protection on the bow and stern keeline try mixing sand with epoxy and apply it to those areas. It wears like nothing else I've seen. I mixed some white pigment with epoxy and sand for this white hull but you can just mix brown sand with epoxy for wood kayaks and it looks good.
