Rustins Wood Dye is a premium solvent-based stain that achieves a rich, natural finish designed for all types of bare or stripped wood.
This fast-drying formula penetrates deep into the fibres to provide lasting colour without raising the grain, ensuring a smooth surface for your final topcoat.
Product Features
- Quick Drying - Fast-acting formula allows for efficient project completion.
- No Grain Raise - Maintains the wood’s smooth texture for easier finishing.
- Durable & Reliable - Non-fading and non-bleeding properties ensure long-term colour integrity.
- Toy Safe - Fully conforms to Safety of Toys Regulations (BS EN 71 Part 3 1995).
Ideal for interior or exterior projects:
- Furniture - Tables, chairs, wardrobes, and dressers.
- Joinery - Doors, skirting boards, staircases, and bannisters.
- Surfaces - Flooring and kitchen worktops.
- Accents - Picture frames and decorative trim.
To achieve the best results, ensure the wood surface is clean, bare, or has been thoroughly stripped of previous finishes. Using a brush or a clean rag, apply an even coat of the dye along the grain and promptly wipe away any excess to ensure a uniform tone. 1 coat is usually sufficient, or 2 for a darker colour result.
Because the final colour is influenced by the natural characteristics of the wood and the subsequent topcoat, we recommend testing a small, inconspicuous area first.

Additional Information
Quick drying penetrating stain for all new or stripped wood. Easy to apply and will not raise the grain. For use on bare wood prior to finishing with any of Rustins' wood finishes. Suitable for interior and exterior use.
Preparation
The surface must be clean, smooth, dry and dust free. Any existing coating must be removed before the application, preferably with a paint remover such as Rustins Strypit Paint & Varnish Stripper. The best method is to sand the area, but if it has been waxed at any time, it is essential that the wax and any other contamination is removed using Rustins Grade 3 Steel Wool and white spirit. Wipe off the solution of wax formed with a clean rag and allow to dry before sanding.
If the wax is not removed, sanding may force the wax further into the wood causing adhesion and drying problems. Any imperfections in the wood can be filled with Rustins Professional Woodfiller.
If purchasing more than one container to dye a large area, mix the contents together in a larger container before use to ensure that there is no variation in shade. It is advisable to test for compatibility on a small area before proceeding. The dye can only be used on bare wood.
Application
- Stir well before and during use until there is no sediment on the bottom of the tin.
- Apply evenly with a clean dry cloth in a warm dry atmosphere.
- On soft absorbent wood a second coat may be applied.
- Hard woods should only be given one coat.
- If more are applied the extra coats may not penetrate and will rub off.
- Where a lighter shade is required, the dye may be diluted with white spirit.
- Dilution must not exceed 2 parts dye to 1 part white spirit.
- All colours can be intermixed to make other shades.
