Acid metal dye

[andrewsd]

Hello all. If anyone can tell me where I can find a supplier in Australia of acid metal dye, I would be grateful. For that matter, I would be grateful for any thoughts on the best type of dye to ebonise or otherwise colour wood. My reading suggests that aniline dye is prone to fading.

Thanks

I cant help, sorry :(

For wood you can try, white vinegar with as much steel wool dissolved in it as it will take.
