TT's Timber Supplies Spirit-Based Wood Dye is an ideal choice for woodworkers and DIY enthusiasts looking to enhance the natural grain of timber with a professional-grade, deep-penetrating finish. Designed for restoration projects, bespoke furniture crafting, and interior trim, this dye offers lasting vibrancy and an exceptionally quick drying time that accelerates project completion. While it provides excellent coverage and character, users should note that as a spirit-based formula, it requires careful handling and adequate ventilation during application compared to water-based alternatives.

This dye is primarily for interior use. If used outdoors, it must be covered with a high-quality, UV-resistant exterior sealant.
Yes, proper sanding is essential to achieve a uniform, professional finish and to prevent uneven penetration.
Yes, since it is a spirit-based dye, you can mix different colors of the same brand to achieve a custom shade.
Use a suitable solvent like methylated spirits or denatured alcohol for cleanup.
Typically, the surface is ready for a clear coat within 20 minutes, though waiting slightly longer ensures total solvent evaporation.
Apply a second coat once the first has fully dried to increase color intensity.
Ensure you are working in smaller sections and maintaining a 'wet edge' to allow the dye to blend smoothly.
Reduce the size of the area you are working on at one time and ensure the room temperature is not excessively high.
Before beginning, ensure your workspace is well-ventilated. Shake or stir the dye container thoroughly before use to ensure pigments are fully suspended.
Compatibility:
This dye is compatible with most standard wood finishes, including shellac, nitrocellulose lacquer, and polyurethane. It is recommended to test on a hidden scrap piece of the same wood species to confirm color density before applying to the main project.
Care:
Store the container in a cool, dark place away from direct heat or open flames. Ensure the lid is sealed tightly after every use to prevent the spirit solvent from evaporating, which can alter the consistency of the dye.
