Black Water Based Wood Dye
Briwax Water-Based Wood Dye is made using light fast dyestuff. This dye is suitable for use on most bare woods. Colors may be intermixed to reach the desired color. Most finishes can be applied over the dye once it is dry.
DIRECTIONS: Surface should be sanded as smooth as possible prior to staining. Before dying piece, test color in an inconspicuous spot or a scrap piece of the same wood. Apply the dye to bare wood with a rag. Do not pour the dye directly onto the wood as this could cause a darker area, which will be difficult to remove. Work the dye over the surface to ensure an even color.
Some grain rising will occur and should be rubbed lightly with #0000 steel wool. Allow dye to dry completely before starting the next stage of your finish. Dye can be reapplied for darker color or thinned with clean water for a lighter color. Clean brushes in water.
