ToddW Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 http://www.veneersupplies.com/default.php?cPath=42 Cheapest prices I've found for TransTint. Think the stu mac stuff is the same, but not certain. McFaddens sure wasn't. Be aware, the trans tint bright red is pretty candy. Made my maple look like my kid's were playing after eathing candy canes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattia Posted August 31, 2008 Report Share Posted August 31, 2008 Axminster.co.uk, and any good local paint store will have stains and dyes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foggy Posted August 31, 2008 Report Share Posted August 31, 2008 anyone? If you take the original finish back to the wood you can use waterbased Batik (material) dyes. They are cheap to buy (come in powder form so you just add water) and can be mixted to the shade that you require. If I'm tinting bare wood prior to finishing I tend to use these dyes. Obviously the only drawback on a previously finished surfce is that you'd have to get right back to the bare wood before application.
