Solvent based wood dye tips

If several batches of the same colour are required, it's recommended that an accurate measure of concentrated wood dye to solvent stain, this will help to achieve a near match if additional batches of the same colour are required at a later date. As these solvent based wood dyes are so concentrated, we recommend that a baby syringe or something similar is used to measure them. Alternative measuring methods can be used such as a bottle cap (when measuring in parts e.g. 1 part red to 1 part yellow).

Available in black, blue, brown, orange, red, white and yellow, these solvent based concentrated wood dyes can be mixed to almost any colour or shade that may be found on a wood dye colour chart.

Where to use

Solvent based wood dyes can be used on floorboards, furniture, kitchen unit doors, wood craft and much more. Being solvent based, they won't raise the grain of the wood giving a raised texture as with water based products. With an almost limitless number of possible colours and shades, solvent based concentrated wood dyes can provide the perfect solution when looking to give old furniture and floors a new lease of life.
