Anilin Dyes, POWDER, SunburstSET, 3x 2,5 - 3 gr. (3x0.1 oz)

This set contains the three basic colors in powder form (solve in your workshop) for creating a vintage Burst finish at a discounted set-price.

Vintage (Gibson) guitars of the "golden age" were finished using ANILIN DYES that were solved in nitro solvent and added to the lacquer for creating a sunburst finish.

We offer this vintage style dye for the engaged replica-maker who wants to use vintage correct materials.

Comes in 3x8 gr. (3x0.28 oz) box, you can mix all our anilin dye-colors for getting your desired look.

Comes on original bags, each bag is good for 600+ ml (= approx. 20+ oz) liquid dye.

Depending on the color-mix and your finishing-attitude this set is good for the finish of 20+ sunburst jobs.

As solving vintage-style anilin dye powder can be a bit tricky (and messy) we offer for the lazy luthier who wants to save time and mixing-issues LIQUID anilin dyes, ready-to-go out of the bottle, please check the webshop for the liquid form.

This is the same anilin dye we offer in liquid form, just solved in NC lacquer solvent and filtered and filled up.

You will get the followig colors as powder for creating liquid dye for yielding the given colors as you can see from the pics:

Color Code 9999: Cherry Red

Color Code 8845: Canary Yellow

Color Code 8815: Dark Brown

-------

Depending on the final color you are going for you may need to add (just a bit) blue and black to the Cherry Red for getting the typical "Gibson Cherry Red".

Caution: unlike some other (modern) Anilin dyes this vintage-style product fades when being exposed to UV, esp, Cherry Red fades well! No issue but a feature, just like the vintage stuff.
