Here on Tortola, you get what you get... i went looking for single-braid Vectran, as i saw on a Formula 40 Cat we have in the yard (a lighter grey colour), and ended up finding Maxibraid instead, which comes pre-coated with that maxicoat stuff (a better dark grey colour). i served my splices and softeyes in a darker-than-white waxed twine, so the overall effect worked out well enough not to alter. i'll keep an eye out for maxicoat to re-coat with.
