[QUOTE="Wet Dottle, post: 18644, member: 192"] I think the color in the meer comes from the inside, while the color in the briar comes from the outside. I think it's the oils (and dirt) in your hands that ends up coloring the outside of briar pipes. In the past, when refinishing a couple of my pipes, sanding resulted in white briar being liberated from under the dark finish that had accumulated in the course of a few years. But perhaps it's just me and my filthy hands... [/QUOTE]
