Show you what I meant. The following pics were taken before I painted the edges. The Bicycle Alchemy has awesome artwork, however we can only see the colored edges from the face side. (this deck is traditional cut too)
Those look barely touched even from the face side, it just looks like you're doing it wrong. The entire side of the deck should be red after you're done...
Again, you missed something.
I won't try other colors, but this thread helps me much. Many of my friends know I hate black bordered decks because of the white chipping. Now I don't hate them that much and might buy some in the future.
@Russell, they are beautiful.
