At the Delmarva Paddler's Retreat, someone mentioned that a graphite paddle could be hand-made by making a Greenland stick out of either balsa wood or foam, then coating it with graphite. [This gives the impression that heat is not needed.] Question: Where do you find graphite in a liquid form, such it can be applied like a paint or a resin? If I can get a particular product name, I should be able to contact the manufacturer to find out how to work with it.
