I've read about tinting shellac with analine dyes (transtint). Has
anyone ever tried to tint shellac with an oil stain?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.


Mixol will combine with most any finish, if that is of interest.

Are they sold through retailers or just direct? I would like a bottle but
their freight is punitive.


I really don't know; I've seen it in various catalogs but not in the
only local woodworking shop. Woodcraft carries it on their web site so
perhaps they have it in their retail stores.
