Esatto lye stain black

Esatto's black lye stain is the darkest lye stain we have, black in color. Do you want to use this on pine/spruce? Please keep in mind that on these light types of wood it may appear somewhat bluish due to the low amount of tannic acids. If you want this effect, we recommend walnut wax varnish.

Lye stain is a color stain that can be used for various purposes, for example to age or gray furniture. The product is intended for use on oak wood, scaffolding wood, pine or teak wood.

In the wood photo you see the wood in the middle that is untreated, the light color next to it has been treated once with lye stain. The dark color has been treated twice with lye stain.

You can apply different layers, according to your wishes. The more layers, the darker the effect will be. It is therefore wise to test a piece on the bottom or side first. Yield: 8-10 m2 per liter, depending on the type and porosity of the substrate.
