Fish Hawk Variegated Thread

Does FishHawk variegated thread stay the same color without CP? I wet a wrap and it din't appear to me to darken much if any. Will the finish change it without using CP?

It will darken without CP. Some of the colors look really good without CP though.

Thanks - Marc

Keep it simple - that's all I can handle!

Thanks. Buzz

Hi Buzz. I haven't purchased it for awhile. I think I bought it right from the web site.
