I was wonder about using some water based dye's too color some pieces for a segmented project and I have never used any of these dye's so I was wondering a few things:
1. How deep does the dye penetrate - will it go into the wood 1/2" deep ?
2. How much does it alter the grain structure (I was thinking about dying a whole board and cutting my components verse dying the individual pieces) or should I just dye the pieces rough and then worry about the dye going through the pieces?
Thanks!
