    2 Dingotone questions - 1) Colour blending and 2) Ceruse (?) over Dingotone

    G'day Dingotoners. I have a swamp ash tele project on the body project and I'm thinking I want a shade with a little more yellow/orange flavour than Karajini red - something a bit more in the ballpark of the 'carmine gypsy' tint that wudtone does ( I've used Karajini on a previous build). Can Dingo tones be blended or would I be better with uncoloured dingotone and do my own tint with a dye (and which dye?

    Second question is about cerusing - adding a highlight grain fill (usually wax-based, i think) after the stain coats - like these guys:

    and

    the rub 'n buff Dan uses in the second clip seems to be readily available here in Aust

    So questions are - do the dingo stains tolerate this sort of treatment and will the Dingo finishing coat tolerate having a wax-based filler underneath it?

    TIA
