Hello,

I've finished an a&C bookcase. It's QS whie oak that has been fumed with
ammonia, a coat of oil and then 2 coats of shellac. I want to apply a

coat
of colored wax to fill the pores and give a darker tone. What is the best
way to color paste waxes: aritist colors perhap?


I can't say it's the best way, but I've mixed burnt siena or VanDyke brown
artist paint(oil based) with Johnson's paste wax and used it. And then there
colored waxes available(i.g.
