Just to add to the above, if the timber has little or no tannins it won't work, but you can add some old tea leaves to the mix for the tannins. Just add the ingredients together and leave overnight or longer, then strain and you are ready to go. Sometimes you also need to leave in sun after painting the mix on, plus some timbers need a few coats to get it really black
