Application
Ensure the timber is thoroughly sanded, dry, bare and free from dust before applying the dye.
Shake well before use. Apply the dye fairly quickly along the grain using a brush or foam applicator. Wipe away any excess with a clean, dry cloth before it dries to help achieve an even colour.
A second coat can be applied after approximately 2 hours if a stronger colour is required. More than two coats may affect the final finish.
Always test the dye on an offcut or inconspicuous area first, as different types of timber can produce different results.

Important Information
Palette Wood Dye is intended for interior woodwork. Do not mix water-based dye with spirit-based dye.
When applying a water-based finish over the dye, avoid excessive brushing as this may lift out the colour. Always test the complete finishing system on a spare piece of timber before starting your project.
