    Transtint dye in water

    Well I turned the blank that I used transtint dye mixed into water and then processed with vacuum. I only did blue on one side and green on the other. I did let the blank dry for several days. It did not seem wet at any point during turning. I first split the blank into base and lid. We seemed to get good penetration with the dye. The color did not seem as vibrant as the Artisan dye. While turning the wood seemed different than the other blanks I have done. Seemed fuzzer? Here are pic of the final product. Looks good but is not like the one done with the other dye. Next I need to do one with the transtint mixed in alcohol.
