Full details
Polyvine Wood Dye is an ideal solution for DIY enthusiasts and professionals seeking a high-quality, even finish on wood projects ranging from furniture restoration to cabinetry. Its water-based, low-odour formula deeply penetrates the wood grain to deliver professional results without harsh fumes, though users should note that application requires careful preparation to ensure uniform absorption across different wood types.

FAQs
Is this dye suitable for outdoor use?
Yes, it is suitable for both interior and exterior use, though exterior projects may require a protective clear topcoat to withstand weather conditions.
Can I mix different colours together?
Yes, the Polyvine Wood Dye range is fully intermixable, allowing you to create custom shades to match existing decor.
How long does it take to dry?
It is touch-dry in approximately 45 minutes under normal conditions.
Do I need to seal the wood after applying the dye?
While the dye seals the wood during application, applying a topcoat or varnish is recommended for added durability on high-traffic surfaces.
What is the best way to clean my brushes after use?
Cleanup is simple; you can wash your brushes and tools thoroughly with warm soapy water.
Troubleshooting
The colour looks blotchy or uneven.
This is often due to uneven wood absorption. Lightly sand the area and apply a wood conditioner or a base layer of water to the wood before dyeing.
The colour is too light after one coat.
Polyvine Wood Dye is buildable. Allow the first coat to dry for at least 45 minutes and apply a second coat to achieve a deeper, more intense hue.
Dye is not adhering to the surface.
Ensure all previous waxes, oils, or varnishes have been completely removed by sanding, as the dye requires direct access to the wood fibres to penetrate.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin, ensure the wood surface is free from dust, wax, or previous finishes. Sand the surface progressively with fine-grit sandpaper to open the grain. Application is straightforward: apply the dye evenly with a brush or applicator, wiping away any excess after a few minutes to ensure an even distribution. The dye is compatible with various interior and exterior wood projects. For long-term protection, especially on high-use furniture, it is recommended to apply a clear Polyvine varnish or topcoat once the dye has fully cured.
