Product Information
Full details
Polyvine Wood Dye is an ideal solution for DIY enthusiasts and professionals seeking a rich, even matt finish that highlights the natural beauty of wood grain. Designed for both interior and exterior applications, this water-based, quick-drying formula penetrates deeply to seal and color various wood types, including hardwood, softwood, and MDF. While it offers excellent versatility and easy cleanup, users should note that as a dye, it requires a separate topcoat or sealant if high-traffic protection is needed for your project.

FAQs
Is this product suitable for outdoor use?
Yes, Polyvine Wood Dye is formulated for both interior and exterior use, though it must be sealed with an appropriate protective finish for weather protection.
Can I mix this with other colors?
Yes, all Polyvine Wood Dyes are fully intermixable, allowing you to create custom colors by blending them together.
How long should I wait between coats?
The product is touch-dry in 45 minutes, but it is recommended to wait for at least an hour or until the surface is completely dry to the touch before applying additional coats.
What tools do I need for application?
You can use a good quality brush, a foam applicator, or a lint-free cloth depending on the size of your project.
Do I need a sealer after using this dye?
Yes, the dye colors and penetrates the wood, but it is recommended to apply a topcoat such as a wax, oil, or varnish to protect the surface from wear and moisture.
Is this product safe for children's toys or food surfaces?
Please consult the product label or safety data sheet for specific information regarding food-safe or toy-safe certifications before applying to items that will have frequent oral contact.
Troubleshooting
Color appears uneven or blotchy
This often occurs if the wood surface was not sanded uniformly or if the wood species has irregular absorption properties. Sand down and re-apply, or use a pre-stain conditioner.
Too many overlap marks visible
Work in smaller, manageable sections and always keep the edge of your brush wet while applying to ensure the dye does not dry prematurely.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before application, ensure the surface is free from dust, wax, or previous finishes, as these can prevent proper penetration. Sand the wood lightly to open the grain. Apply the dye using a high-quality brush, sponge, or lint-free cloth. For large areas, keep a 'wet edge' to maintain consistency. If you wish to achieve a darker tone, wait for the first coat to dry completely before applying a second. Once dry, protect the finished surface with an appropriate varnish or wax, especially if the project is for exterior use or high-traffic interior furniture. Wash brushes thoroughly with warm water immediately after use.
