Many years ago I was having problems with polishing compound finding it's way into the surface of finished handles of Westinghouse ivory micarta. Norplex made me a batch of 1000-2000 pounds using far greater pressure than normal and I got a product that stayed ivory color and was hard to tell from the real thing. Sadly, when it was gone they refused to make another batch.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and make a prediction. It's going to look like expertly finished off-white plastic.

(ooops...I forgot to say expertly HAND FINISHED off-white plastic)
