It's the solvent that is used in spirit based dyes that is the problem in California. Whether it is regular or Pro dye, same problem. Tom

Dye is not a finish. If you want to protect it from moisture, pick a finish that is somewhat water resistant. Lots of them are. To get a nice high polish, wax the surface. You can dye any time you wish depending on the result you are looking for. If you dye an article before punching holes, you can go back with a small brush and touch up the holes. You can dip dye the whole thing after all the cutting and punching. You can use an airbrush to apply dye. ... Tom
