The Real Deal.

The Real Deal. I used the amber to tint the linseed oil used for finishing my Hawken gun, this after aqua fortis. Came out wonderfully!

Awesome color

I added about 5 drops to one ounce of boiled linseed oil and got a great color on the curly maple.

Fancy curly maple

Haven’t used it yet. When my left hand flintlock barn gun comes it will be the 1st stage of the color concoction for the finish. Fingers crossed!

Trans tint dyes

I used this product with Rubio Monaco, and m3- nano from studio. It turned out remarkable. It is the best product combination for a beautiful/durable finish! I highly recommend it.

Causes corrosion to the barrel.

I used this on my woods runner. The iron nitrate is corrosive and caused rust to my barrel along the barrel Chanel. For this reason I recommend using a modern wood stain. The last thing you want is for your new gun to start rusting right from the start.

Wish I had not used it

Mixed a little (and I mean little) bit into some tung oil and applied it to my stock that I had previously processed with iron nitrate. Got the idea from watching a Kibler video. Turned my stock dark - too dark. Would not have used it had I known I was going to turn the maple almost black.

First timer

I was raised around and served in the military learning about firearms. I leaned for to black powder firearms and finally decided to build one. I purchased a Kibler Longrilfe and was very pleased with the quality and workmanship. As it being my first time building one. The assistance I receive through watching videos of how to assemble, sanding, staining the stock and browning the barrel, locks. I used the Trans Tint Dye and followed the instructions, and the wood stain came out beautiful. I was very pleased in how the color of the grain was highlighted and the stain of the wood very appealing to the eye. Thank you for the instructional videos and the written instructions that came with it. Future plans are to build another Kibler Longrifle soon. Thank you
