Polyvine Wood Dye

Polyvine Wood Dye – Rich, Microporous Color for Interior & Exterior Wood

Polyvine Wood Dye is a high-performance, fast-drying wood stain available in 11 rich, natural shades—perfect for enhancing the grain and character of wood surfaces. Designed for both interior and exterior use, this water-based formula delivers consistent, even color on bare wood, softwoods, hardwoods, and veneers.

Its microporous structure allows the wood to breathe while resisting blistering and peeling. The formula is biocide boosted to help defend against fungal growth, making it ideal for both indoor trim and outdoor joinery. Whether you're refinishing doors, beams, cladding, or cabinetry, Polyvine Wood Dye offers long-lasting color with quick drying and easy application.

    Helpful Project Tip

    Every finishing project is a system involving wood type, surface preparation, application method, and the combination of products used together. Always apply a small test area (on a hidden spot or scrap) using your full product stack — stain or paint followed by Polyvine — before coating the entire project. This confirms compatibility between layers; you are not just testing Polyvine, but the interaction of all materials used in the project.
    
    Good to Know: If any base product contains oil or wax (including many products with “oil” or “wax” in the name), allow adequate time for full cure before applying a water-based finish. Follow the other manufacturer’s cure-time guidance, then allow additional buffer time within your test period. Some products that feel “dry” may still be curing, and water-based topcoats can be less forgiving if wax- or oil-based solvents are still evaporating (out-gassing) from the layer beneath.
