NGR Dyes have excellent fade & UV resistance.
Non Grain Raising transparent dyes are used alone on bare wood to provide
a base tone of color on which to build a final finish effect and color with stains, glazes, and toners. Dyes contain NO Pigment Particles and therefore color wood without emphasizing the grain structure.
Intermix colors to arrive at custom color tones.
For use on bare or stripped wood.
• Reduce color intensity with NGR Reducer or Acetone or Denatured Alcohol
• Use NGR RETARDER to slow drying and improve penetration,
especially in hot weather and on harder dense woods.
• Mix into Lacquer or Shellac to make transparent tints or toners.
With the newer VOC Compliant formulation, the use of NGR RETARDER
is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for dye application by hand.
