Black Stain/Dye
In Response To: Strip: Stain/Dye (Bryan Hansel)
: I've used Solar Lux's Blood Red dye before on a cedar strip, but I
: want something almost black or black. Something a deep dark
: color on western red cedar. I'm debating between: Jet Black or a
: thick coat of American Walnut.
: Any thoughts?
How about wiping on some India ink? Wear gloves, use a rag, wipe it on and let it sit just a few seconds. It should soak deeply into the pores almost immediately. When it dries it will be waterproof, but light sanding may lighten the color. Test it on scrap.
try diluting it,with water.
Just a thought.
