Hand Wipe

Start with 25-30% ELBWS Binder and add up to 10% ELBSS Binder for additional pore marking and contrast or up to 10% of ELBDG Binder to improve stain uniformity. Add up to 15% ELTINT Micronized Pigment, up to 5% ELDYE Dye Concentrate can be added to increase vibrancy. Add water to bring the total mix balance to 100%

This version of the stain is better for wipe-on and wipe-off as it provides longer open time. Wet your lint-free cloth with the stain and wipe it evenly in circles across the face of the piece to be stained. Keep the rag wet with stain while applying to minimize drag lines and lapping. Remove the stain with a clean cloth, giving a final wipe in the direction of the wood grain.
