Note- Stew Mac rebrand the Transtint dyes- they are exactly the same product. Two main burst colours have different names but I list both names. (I called Transtint to check all this).
Colortone Liquid stains used are:
1- Tobacco Brown (Perimeter color)
StewMac product number # 5034 - stewmac.sjv.io/2r6yMM
(Transtint name is Mission Brown.)
2- Medium Brown (For blending the other two main tones).
StewMac product number # 5033- stewmac.sjv.io/2r6yMM
3- Vintage Amber (Center color).-
StewMac product number # 5030 - stewmac.sjv.io/2r6yMM
(TransTint name is "Honey Amber")
**Useful Additional colors **
4- Red Mahogany
(The transition color (instead of medium brown), for a more red burst)
StewMac product number # 5032- stewmac.sjv.io/2r6yMM
5- Black
Great color to have for giving a burst an extra dark edge (Mix a small amount of black in with the usual tobacco brown mix, in a separate container)
StewMac product number # 5040- stewmac.sjv.io/2r6yMM
Diluted (sometimes) with Denatured alcohol but water can also be used with these dyes. Water raises the grain more/faster so if you are going to use water, wipe all surfaces with clean water, let dry, then sand of the raised grain...you will have to do that at least 2-3 times.
I use a separate piece of old cotton
T shirt for each color.
Wear gloves and a respirator.
1- I grain fill everything ***first** (the grain fill must be as dark as your darkest dye color).
2- Sand it all flat to 220,
3- Then add the burst colors.
4- If you're spraying nitro, you MUST spray a few dry dust coats to seal this colour otherwise it will separate/mottle a bit (and also bleed onto any white purflings you may have) a bit and you have to start again.- So DRY coats to seal, then wet spray.
Body wood is Tasmanian Blackwood (Acacia melanoxylon) grain filled with Cardinal grain filler and finish sanded to 220. After rubbing the burst, spray a dry coat of sealer to minimize the possibility of the color running, then spray a wet coat, let dry then proceed with your normal spraying schedule- don't sand through during cut back or its back to square one = :(
