You are welcome!

Excellent introductions to colouring pigments.

Lovely video. Is that also how they did those white polished doors and certain furniture back in the days? Shellac and white pigment? Or was there some other method used?

I need to colour match a sun bleached extending dining table where the 2 unused extended leaves have been stored under the table and still retain their original RoseWood colour and the 2 leaves that have been bleached are really burnt out and white. What's the best way to recolour match the entire table? Should I stain with these pigments or buy a Hard wax oil colour ready mixed from Fiddes and then finish with Gilboys Rose gold wax? Thank you for such brilliant videos

Nice video

Hi. We buy our pigments from Fiddes in Cardiff. :-)

I'm extremely surprised that you don't have, or don't use a bright green (to tone down anything with too much red in it) or royal blue (likewise to kill anything that's too orange).

There are a few colours that we use that we didn't show in this video, we do in fact use bright green, blue and yellow spirit colours although we use blue very rarely. I think it s a very valid point and maybe in future videos I will demonstrate how we use them. In the majority of colouring applications green is seldom used by us. Nest time we have a particularly bright piece of mahogany i'll crack open the green. :-)

I am in the states. Where can I get these?

Hi. I’m not sure where you can get it in the U.S. but try Googling ‘raw earth pigment powder’ to see what results it gives you. Cheers Simon.

Where can I get those jars?!

If I want to repair a damaged oak floorboard, say a resin filled knot? Can I use these techniques and materials snd then put hard wax oil over the top to seal in and protect?

@@GilboysRestoration thank for replying so soon. Found your video’s very informative and useful. The polish was pale polish? Ethanol based? What are the stains? Is nitro stain suitable. What is the solvent/base of the stains you used?

Is there a replacement for the chrome orange? I can find any anywhere...

Sorry for the delay. I'm not sure there is. I haven't bought any in decades. You only need a small amount of it as it is such a strong colour. It looks like you might be in luck here.. www.jacksonsart.com/jackson-s-artist-pigment

@@GilboysRestoration thank you, I managed to find a jar at an art supplies shop. Apparently this is no longer made due to the lead content. It is so strong that I've not actually been able to use it anywhere as yet! 😂 🤣

Those spirit colours really fade...

No French polishing. The spirit dyes are not natural.
