“I will be covering various means of colouring or otherwise altering the appearance of wood using stain, dye, chemical reaction, lime wax, bleaching and faux finishes. I will start the presentation with a powerpoint presentation of examples of various means of colouring. I will have a handout for the presentation. And I do have a hands-on segment, so I hope to get some hands-on with dye application. If anyone can bring some 180 or 200 sandpaper that would be great.” – Ed –
