Description
Cactus Juice Stabilizing Dye - Sampler (5 Bottles)
PLEASE NOTE! Lime Green and bright yellow have been discontinued by the manufacturer, we are subbing Emerald Green and aztec gold in this set
Cactus Juice Stabilizing Dyes are designed specifically for adding bright, vibrant color to your stabilizing toolbox. These 100% liquid dyes will not settle over time and will help you achieve some of the really bright colors that are just not possible to be achieved with other dyes.
Cactus Juice can be dyed when you want to add some color to the wood you are stabilizing. Cactus Juice Stabilizing Dyes dyes will not affect the cure of the Juice since they are specifically made for use in plastic resins. Be sure to use more dye than you think you need!
There is no formula available to give consistent results from wood to wood. This is due to the way different species and even different pieces of wood within the same log take the dyed Cactus Juice. It is all a matter of trial and error! Stabilizing itself is a science while dying and stabilizing is an art!
MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
Start out with a ratio of 1oz per gallon of Cactus Juice. Add the dye to the Cactus Juice in a jug and shake vigorously. Then run a sample batch with the wood you plan to do to completion. After cured, cut in half lengthwise to see what the color inside looks like. If it is too dark, add clear Cactus Juice to your mix. If it is not dark enough, add more dye. Just keep in mind that it takes a LOT more dye than you think to get good color in most woods.
Hardwoods will require more dye than soft punky woods. Wood color will also have an effect on the final product.
Suggested Starting Mix Ratio: 1oz per Gallon
Maximum Loading Ratio, Do Not Exceed: 4oz per Gallon
The 5 Bottle Sampler set contains one 2 oz bottle of each of the following colors -
Brilliant Blue, Teal Green, Bright Yellow, Emerald Green and Extreme Pink
WARNING: CACTUS JUICE STABILIZING DYE IS ONLY FOR USE WITH STABILIZING RESIN!! IT WILL NOT WORK WITH CASTING RESINS SUCH AS ALUMILITE, POLYESTER, AND EPOXY.
Extreme Pink example with spalted hackberry
