Liberon Palette Wood Dye - Ebony

No, the dye is intended for bare, unfinished interior woodwork. Pre-finished wood needs to be stripped back to bare wood for the dye to penetrate and color effectively.

You can mix different Liberon Palette Wood Dye shades together before application. Experiment on scrap wood to find your desired custom color before applying to your main project.

The approximate coverage is 2-4 square meters per 250ml, but this can vary depending on the porosity and type of wood being treated.

No, the Liberon Palette Wood Dye is specifically designed for interior woodwork only.

The minimum drying time is 2 hours. Always ensure the surface is completely dry before applying any subsequent finishes like oil, wax, or varnish.

Yes, it can be mixed with Liberon Natural Finish Varnishes, which are often water-based. Ensure the dye is fully dry before application.

Tools and applicators should be cleaned immediately after use with water.

Ensure the wood surface is properly prepared, uniformly sanded, and free of contaminants. Apply the dye evenly and avoid over-application in one spot. Test on a scrap piece first.

Wood type and porosity significantly affect color. Always test on an inconspicuous area or a scrap piece of the same wood before applying to the entire project. Mix colors carefully to achieve desired shades.

Ensure the environmental conditions are suitable (adequate temperature and ventilation). Thick application can also slow drying. Apply thin, even coats and allow minimum 2 hours drying time between coats or before applying a topcoat.

This dye is formulated to let the grain show. If the grain is obscured, it might be due to a very thick application or a subsequent finish that filled the pores. Ensure thin coats and appropriate topcoat selection.
