so, this wood carves nicely. it has an attribute i don't know how to deal with. after it sits for awhile, it turns a powdery green. it must be from the oils. does anyone know how to deal with this? i've seen some turnings from this wood that are beautiful and not green so i know it can be done.

thanks.
