    Default Timber dye

    I am after a bright red dye for a telecaster project. The face of the body is birds eye Huon that is about 4mm thick. There is a white edge binding and a fender neck. I am liking the rest of the body red stain. Not interested in paint but am seeking a deep red dye or stain. Not talking Jarrah but Red. Any ideas ?

    I have used the red dye on a couple of projects and you can get a very nice bright red when a clear finish is applied.
