    Developed by renowned restorer and finisher Jeff Jewitt, the TransTint line of dyes is more versatile than any we’ve ever seen! TransTint dyes, like this black, can be mixed with water for an economical, nonflammable stain or with alcohol for a fast drying, non-grain raising stain. For use as a toner or “shader,” dyes can be added directly to water-based finishes and solvents to create a perfect match for touch-ups or a unique, customized finish. A 2 oz. bottle yields about 2 quarts of dye-stain. Can even be added to: shellac, catalyzed lacquer and varnish, water-based lacquer and polyurethane finishes. Not for exterior use.

    Early in my woodworking career, I lived by the maxim that I would never artificially color the wood I was using.

      Did the job great

      I used this tint full strength to cover a tv stand I made. Went on evenly but took 24 hrs to dry. I top coated it with laquer and it looks great.

      It's OK.

      I have been using Trans Tint Dyes for 2 years mixed with Homer Formby Tung Oil on white oak wood. It takes 4 to 5 coats to get an acceptable end color and the drying time can take up to 48 to 72 hours, depending upon the humdity. If there was another dye that could be mixed with Tung Oil, I would try it.
