Liberon Spirit Wood Dye is designed for woodworkers and antique restorers seeking a deep, penetrating wood colouration. Its key benefit is its ability to easily achieve rich, consistent shades on both dense hardwoods and previously finished surfaces, with the caveat that it requires specific methylated spirits for tool cleaning. This traditional dye offers excellent coverage and can be mixed to create custom hues, making it versatile for various interior wood projects.

No, this product is specifically designed for interior use only.
Brushes should be cleaned immediately after use with methylated spirits.
The coverage is approximately 8-16m² per litre, depending on the wood and application method.
Yes, the dyes can be mixed together to achieve custom or intermediate shades.
It is suitable for colouring dense hardwoods like mahogany and oak, as well as previously finished woods.
A minimum of 6 hours is required before applying subsequent coats or a topcoat.
Yes, it can be used on previously finished woods, but ensure the surface is prepared correctly (e.g., lightly sanded) for adhesion.
Ensure the wood surface is properly prepared and free from contaminants. Apply dye evenly with a brush or cloth, working with the grain. For very absorbent woods, a pre-dye conditioner might be beneficial.
Ensure the surface is free of any existing sealers or finishes. Light sanding may be required for dense woods. Apply with firm, even strokes.
Clean tools immediately after use with methylated spirits. If the dye has dried, try soaking the tools in methylated spirits for a longer period.
Apply additional coats of the dye once the previous coat is dry, allowing sufficient drying time between applications.
Preparation: Ensure the wood surface is clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, and existing finishes (unless the goal is to recolour a previously finished wood, in which case sanding may be necessary to ensure adhesion).
Application: Apply using a clean brush or lint-free cloth. Work the dye into the wood grain for even coverage. For darker shades, multiple coats can be applied after the previous coat has dried.
Drying: Allow a minimum of 6 hours between coats or before applying a topcoat. Ensure adequate ventilation.
Compatibility: Suitable for dense hardwoods (e.g., mahogany, oak) and previously finished interior woods. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
Tool Cleaning: Clean brushes and cloths immediately after use with methylated spirits.
