FAQs

Can this wood dye be used on painted or varnished wood?

No, Liberon Palette Wood Dye is designed for use on bare, interior wood only. The existing finish must be completely removed before application.

How do I clean my brushes after using the dye?

Tools used for application can be cleaned easily with water immediately after use.

What is the coverage rate of this wood dye?

The coverage is approximately 8-16 square metres per litre, depending on the porosity of the wood and the application method.

Can I mix the different colours of Liberon Palette Wood Dye together?

Yes, the wood shades can be mixed together to create unique, custom colours to suit your project.

Is this product suitable for outdoor furniture?

No, Liberon Palette Wood Dye is strictly for interior use only and is not weather-resistant.

How long does the dye take to dry?

The minimum drying time between coats is 2 hours. Ensure adequate ventilation and room temperature for optimal drying.

What types of finishes can I apply over the dye?

The dye is suitable for use prior to applying oil, wax, varnish, and French polish finishes.

Troubleshooting

Uneven colour application

Ensure the wood is properly prepared and sanded. Apply the dye in thin, even coats, avoiding over-application in any one area. Wipe off excess dye if necessary with a clean cloth after a short penetration time.

Wood grain not visible

This can happen if too much dye is applied or if the wood is very dense. Try applying a lighter coat or consider a different shade that offers better contrast. Ensure you are using the dye on bare wood.

Dye not drying within 2 hours

Drying times can be affected by humidity and temperature. Ensure the area is well-ventilated and at room temperature. Thicker coats may also take longer to dry.

Colour differs from expectation

Always test the dye on a scrap piece of the same wood or an inconspicuous area first. Wood type and porosity significantly affect the final colour. Mix shades in a separate container to achieve consistent custom colours.
