Listen...Don't buy any fancy dye stuff with limited colors. USE ARTIST OIL PAINT...mix it with mineral spirits* and create ANY color you can imagine. Been doing this since the 60's when I learned it from my Mom. ( loads of other thinners work but I think mineral spirits is best. Enamel reducer is also good)

Hey...

Thanks for the vid. I'm a bit late to the party, but do you know how colour fast these dyes would be outdoors, in direct sunlight..? Tryin' to find outdoor wood stains that are vibrant & not just varieties of brown...

Cheers,

C... 🤟🏻

I have watched BDB's video several times, actually I think that he has a couple about dying and sho sugi ban.. anyhow, you didn have a great breakdown of the results, comparisons and awesome results.

Great job, this is going into my YouTube "reference material" folder for me to refer back to later.

Thank you!

Great video. Very informative. Thank you for sharing this 👍🏻

Awesome breakdown. Especially helpful for someone like me who is extremely colorblind.

So if I have hardwood floor already installed, could I sand it down, stain it and resurface it to look like this? These colors are insane I would love to do something like that with the floor I have.

Like the information a lot. Especially like the idea of using water instead of other 3 liquids you showed. I saw on another different video where the maker went to a JoAnn's Fabric (and Crafts) & got a multi pack of oil-based paints & mixed it with clear MinWax stain. I found a similar oil paint package but haven't tried it yet. So thats a thought. Very neat concept!.😊😊😊

Another great video. Loved the colors and how you can customize it. 👍

If you wanna get completely insane you could collect the soot from the burns and make ink with it

Would adding a small amount of black to the green, blue, purple make it darker ? That way you don’t have to double up on lighter colors?

You said that the medium you use effects the saturation of the color. You only used water as your medium, perhaps the cooler colors would have better color, but you didn't do that so there is no way to know.

Aqui e Brasil e uma pena que não temos tradução gratidão

Thank you for the suggestion i will do it soon! But a little question, i have this puzzle pieces made out of wood but the old paint is vanishing and i want to repaint them using acrylic. Do i have to sand them down to remove the old paint or i could just simply apply the new paint?

[caseymacgill]

Can you use for an outdoor application?

[Riko]

Can this technique be used for outside projects, or is it just for inside projects? Thank you

So I bought the blue dye… here is the issue I am running into… walnut wood does not hold color well, nor does it seal the color you dye it.. lol any tips?

[manyfeatherknives]

Could you use a grinder instead of the electric drill?
