Do any of the stains work with epoxy? I want to stain my wood slab to that sunbleach effect you did but I’m not sure if I can apply epoxy over it ...

The sunbleached stain would probably work (I think it's oil based). Try a test piece first. My only concern is if the stain is water-based the epoxy might reactivate it. Cheers

Hey I don't know if you've already answered this, but how much material does burning and then brushing take off of the wood? I'm making an American flag where the red stripes are burnt, and each stripe is about 3 quarters of an inch, and if I lose too much material I'm afraid the stripes will be too small. Should I just partially burn them instead? Thanks

Not a lot really. Prolly 1/16 inch. Might get more like 1/8 if you burnt real deep. Cheers

Always love your post. Quick question how long do you typically let the stain sit? Do you do anything different for dye vs stain? I typically let it sit for 3 mins

@BuildDadBuild

4 жыл бұрын

It kind of varies. But I'd say, on average, about 3-5 minutes. With dye I just wipe on. I'll only take any excess pooling off. And if the dye isn't as dark as I like, I'll come back and hit it with a second coat. Cheers!

I like the Metallic. I kinda like those marks.

I completed my first showcase shou sugi ban attempt on an entertainment console I built. The how- to videos shared by Build Dad Build really helped with my confidence in attempting this technique. Initially, I wasn’t sure of the stain I wanted to use, so of course I did a few trial runs on scrap wood. My original idea was to use several complementary colors of stain on the wood, and my hope was that the multi-colored stain would set into the grain and give the appearance of a vibrant swirl. Sadly, I couldn’t figure out how to achieve that look. Is that even possible?🤷‍♀️ Anyway, I utilized this technique on the console surface and drawer faces. I ended up using maple stain, and I went in with red stain and hand painted a few wood grain paths. It looks so dope!

Hey Nick, I did some experimenting with white's and lighter greys. I used water based latex not thinned. Brush it on your shou sugi ban then take a squeege, rubber sanding block, strong foam or whatever you have and try it out. Do it right after you put the paint on. If you f#@k up just take your brush and re-apply. So swipe your rubber block maybe a foot then wipe the block off and repeat. Cheers

Need to get some opinion on what you like to mix your Keda die powder with. I hope you've used them. I bought a sample pack as I'm going to do a narrow bar top of 16" x 10'x 1 1/2 " Pine. I have paint thinner to mix it with but reading the package it says you can just use water. I watched the video where you used Ritz and the other dyes including the Keda. Yours's looked to be liquid but I couldn't get those. So I'm wondering if you can mix it with water, you probably can't use thinner to make it to the amount you need. right? thinner is more oil based? Help please. You can leave it here or if you like I'm on FB facebook.com/tmh55 . Thanks
