Curious about Wooden Canoes
Hello!
I’ve recently re-shellacked the bottom of the hull of my Island Falls wood canvas canoe, and realize that there are areas of the pin-striping tape coming off (which has been placed at the waterline between the shellac and the painted canvas). This 1/4” tape separates the painted canvas from the shellac. I would like to take it off and replace it with a different color. Is there a safe way to do this that doesn’t mess up the shellac, the paint, or the canvas? It’s quite sticky.
Many thanks,
Gregor
