TransFast

Details

Developed by renowned furniture restorer and finisher Jeff Jewitt, these TransFast water-soluble powder dyes outperform any we have tried. Because the dyes contain no fillers or extenders, each 1 oz. bottle makes a half gallon or more of stain, nearly twice as much as most other dyes! Packaged in resealable bottles, you can use only the amount of dye necessary for the project at hand and not have to worry about the remaining powder leaking out of a paper envelope or absorbing moisture like other powdered dyes. Perfect for new work, repairs, or restoration, these deep penetrating colors can be combined to create virtually any shade without hiding the natural features of the wood. Stained surfaces can be coated with almost any type of finish to bring out the color you’ve applied. These easy to use dyes come with the best mixing and application instructions we have seen. Do not store liquid dyes in metal containers. Medium Walnut Dye.

Simple, Fast, Effective

I bought this dye powder to spray an entire kitchen's worth of cabinets. I used Baltic Birch plywood and sprayed this water based dye with a HVLP gun (1.3mm tip at ~70 max psi). It went on quickly, with very little splotchiness (more of a gun set up issue) and was very simple to see results. This product dries extremely quickly in the proper environment; A cabinet was dry to the touch in less than 10 minutes. This was my first foray into spray finishing, and this really takes the cake over rubbing on oil stain! I finished with 3 coats of sprayed shellac (alcohol based) - and the finish really pops. I would suggest NOT using a water based finish over top of this dye, as that may dilute the dye.
