I've dissolved the dye in denatured alcohol and both sprayed and wiped it, but I'm getting a lot of "spotting" and streaking from what looks like the solvent evaporating too quickly.
The problem is that I'm having a heck of a time getting rid of these and getting the color on four different parts to match. So, I'm pondering trying to strip it out, or even it out, as much as I can between all four of these pieces that I'm working with.
Question:
What's causing this result?
Question:
Would it be detrimental to completely submerge these pieces in alcohol for an extended time period to even out the color between the four pieces? In this case, since they are table legs, I would have to probably use a PVC cylinder to lower them into. I've seen that the turners do this, but I wasn't sure as to the reason other than to drive out water.
Question:
Would a retarder help in this case, or a different solvent altogether?
Question:
Am I hosed at this point? Should I just paint $400 worth of wood?
