dingotone colours

Sorry Brendan missed a point, im aiming for more of a satin finish anyway so not too concerned about the gloss levels. Also, do you know if the top coats are film so that it fills small pores like the gun stock oil that shall remain unnamed.

Brendan thanks mate. Db, effing wow! Do you think that is all I'd need to pop the grain with the black, then go back over with one light coat to get the polishing effect of a charcoal burst? And is there any way to dilute the colour?

I would say one stain coat then go in with the intensifying coat and you should end up with a nice charcoal burst.
You can manipulate the stain coat by going in lightly at first then slowly build up to the desired intensity..

Diluting the product will upset the balance of the ingredients and may have a detrimental effect on the finish.

Sounds awesome! Can't wait to get my hands on the kit in november and give this a bash. Thanks so much for developing this, and congrats on the launch again.

Sorry to be a pest, but do the top coats build film thickness? Not much of an issue with the ib build but the Tele I'm about to start has a 'different' finish to say the least. Google should sugi ban and you'll see what I mean. Was thinking of the colorless kit, but after the guitar is 'stained' I dont want to put something like a sanding sealer on in fear of ruining the finish or using timbermate pre finish caus I don't think butane and timbermate would be mates.

Andrew - how about this as an idea?

That's MENTAL! What I love most is he says it's controllable, then woof! Smoke alarm goes of haha. Great idea though. I feel it may be tricky to get my hands on gun powder though. Looks cool though, but still like the sugi method. It looks unreal when you sand it back a bit afterwards.
