FAQs

Can I use Liberon Palette Wood Dye on pre-finished wood?

No, the dye is designed for application on bare wood only to allow proper penetration and colour development.

How long does the dye take to dry?

A minimum of 2 hours drying time is recommended between coats. Ensure adequate ventilation.

Can I mix different colours of Liberon Palette Wood Dye?

Yes, the colours can be mixed together to create unique shades. Always test the mixed colour on a scrap piece of wood first.

What finishes can I apply over the wood dye?

It is suitable for use prior to oil, wax, varnish, and French polish finishes.

Is this dye suitable for exterior use?

No, this product is strictly for interior use only.

How much area does 500ml of dye cover?

One litre covers between 8-16m², so 500ml will cover approximately 4-8m², depending on the wood porosity and application thickness.

How do I clean my brushes after using the dye?

Clean your brushes or applicators immediately after use with water.

Troubleshooting

Uneven colour application

Ensure the wood surface is uniformly prepared and free from contaminants. Apply the dye with consistent pressure and technique, working into the grain. For lighter colours, multiple thin coats are better than one heavy coat.

Dye not penetrating the wood

Confirm the wood surface is indeed bare and not sealed with a previous finish. Sanding may be required to remove any existing sealers or finishes.

White colour appears too opaque or chalky

This is a characteristic of the white dye. Apply it more thinly or consider mixing it with a clear base or another wood dye shade to achieve a more translucent effect.

Water cleanup is difficult

Ensure tools are cleaned immediately after use. Dried dye residue may require scrubbing with soap and water.
