RE: [Digital BW] Faux Meyer Rod - first dMax test results

Most of the polyurethanes that one can buy locally are aromatic as opposed
to aliphatic.  The aromatics yellow.  The reason I use and recommend
Hydrocote is that it is aliphatic and will not yellow.  Of course for
experimenting, any will do.
