Has anyone had a problem with red eva block from Merrick turning a pinkish color after sanding? Need some bright or fire red eva block that will retain it's color after sanding.
Thanks, Steve Re: Red eva block

Have you tried something like a tooth brush to clean out the small particals that are stuck in the pours of thr grip.
The little partical can cause the grip to change color Dave von Doehren PRRODS......If man built it , man can fix it.and if man built it man can break it ! Re: Red eva block

I use 600 grit wet/dry sandpaper under running water after shaping. Another good cleaner is "GoJo" hand cleaner with pumice,again under running water.Asoft bristled scru brush is a great plus.
The red will likely fade soon after serious sun exposure anyway. All my Red grips look pink after a while..a light sanding revives them..for a while. Re: Red eva block

Steve - see, I've only been buildign for a few years, and came to teh same conclusion as the guy with 56 years of experiance, lol. I will try to e-mail you the pix, unless I forget - which I probably will.
It's not that it looks Pink like your FEminine woman Tuna rod, it's just not as Red as you would like it to be. Re: Red eva block
