Question Micarta Scales

I did my first Micarta Scales, Red Linen, and have some ligher color
patched near the edges in a couple of spots. They don't appear to be scratches, surface is smooth and even with rest of material across scale, but appear to be under the surface. I'm thinking I got the material to hot forming on the belt grinder.
Any Ideas???

Thanx ahead for any possible answers!

Les

Sounds right to me. In my experience, those 'burns' usually aren't very deep and can be sanded out by hand fairly easily. Then, maybe a rub down with Renaissance wax will help darken what's left....
