Okay to mix transtint dye with General Finishes Arm-r-seal oil & urethane topcoat?
It seems to work okay if I first dissolve the dye in four-parts acetone first which is a tip I got from a Rockler guy.
I’m mixing up to 1/32 and got good looking results with several colors. The color my sister likes is dark walnut at 1/128 mix on a poplar piece. The piece is already finished with poly but she wants to darken it.
Is anyone else putting transtint in this oil topcoat?
Thanks,
Scott
