Yeah, I really wasn't sure what it was going to look like and I didn't have any green tape to experiment on, so I just went for it. Really is working, you know, what are the odds of that? What may not be clear from the pics is that the cord whipping color then matches the downtube/top tub printing fairly well. Maybe a little too much red in it, but close enough.

I think I'm going to do a coat of clear shellac next, let that get good and dry, then see if it needs more amber, but my thinking so far is that it doesn't, and a little too much of it would turn the green to dark brown, and then where would I be?
