i dont know what the red is kim but i do know that as small as that piece is my hands were stained like hematite i dont thin it is hematite but it was messy

this stuff has alot of nuggys in it as in little holes and big cracks so i tried the superglue trick on the face of it and it worked pretty good i only had the thick stuff but it stayed where i put it i filled a few holes and cracks let it dry and resanded it

Is that a camera trick or is there some red down on that side? Cher

No matter what it is, it just adds to the beautiful cab. Cher
