Mixing Woodoc Colours with Clear Sealers

Materials Needed:

1. Woodoc Colour Tint (pre-measured bottle)
2. Clear Woodoc Sealer (water-borne or solvent-based)
3. Mixing Container (clean and dry)
4. Stirring Tool (e.g., paint stirrer or clean stick)
5. Measuring Tools (optional, for precision)
6. Protective Gear (gloves, mask, if necessary)

Steps to Mix Colors:

1. Preparation:

   • Read Instructions: Review the guidelines provided with Woodoc Colours and the clear sealer. This will include recommended mixing ratios and safety precautions.
   • Prepare Workspace: Ensure your mixing area is well-ventilated and covered to protect surfaces from spills.

2. Measure the Sealer:

   • Pour the desired amount of clear Woodoc sealer into your mixing container. The amount will depend on the area you plan to cover and the intensity of color you wish to achieve.

3. Add the Colour Tint:

   • Shake or stir the Woodoc Colour tint bottle before use to ensure the pigments are evenly distributed.
   • Add the Woodoc Colour tint to the clear sealer. The amount of tint will affect the intensity of the color. Start with a small amount and add more as needed to reach the desired shade.

4. Mix Thoroughly:

   • Stir the mixture thoroughly with your stirring tool to ensure the color is evenly distributed throughout the sealer. Continue stirring until the color is fully incorporated and uniform.

5. Test the Color:

   • Before applying the mixture to your project, test the color on a small, inconspicuous area of the wood. This will help you verify the color and make any adjustments if necessary.

6. Adjust Intensity:

   • If the color is too light, gradually add more tint and mix again. If it’s too dark, add more clear sealer and mix thoroughly.

7. Application:

   • Once the desired color is achieved, apply the tinted sealer to the wood as directed in the application instructions. Use the same techniques you would for the clear sealer to ensure an even coat.

8. Clean Up:

   • Clean all tools and containers immediately after use to prevent the tint from drying and hardening. Follow the cleaning instructions for the sealer you used.

Tips:

• Consistency: Ensure thorough mixing to avoid streaks or uneven coloration.
• Test First: Always test the color on a sample piece of wood before starting on the final project.
• Work Quickly: Some sealers have a short working time, so prepare and apply the mixture promptly.

By following these steps, you can achieve the perfect color for your wood projects, ensuring a professional and customized finish.
