I am using amber dye and Goop from the Skin Boat Store. The reason for asking is on the web site they state that they don't recommend dye with their 7 oz nylon, "if you must color please pigment part B of the urethane kit". I hadn't seen this before ordering the dye or I would have called then. Anyway it's raining here today so I'll have to wait till tomorrow for shrinking, hopefully I can get an answer from Cory by then.
