Yesterday I turned a bowl from an Oak crotch that I'd been given and as it still had a high moisture content, I'm expecting some wood movement, cracks, etc.
I brought it indoors and I'm just going to leave it to thoroughly dry out, but this morning I noticed some grey coloured blotches and patches in places.
Is this the Tanin in the wood rising to the Surface and is it likely to remain once the bowl has dried? If so, what would be my best bet to try and remove or reduce it?
Here's a photo of one of the offcuts. Thanks
