DaleksInc Report post Posted September 6 I can't remember: is it light dye first, then dark, or dark first, then light? Also, while I'm here, where in the process should I apply antique? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also, while I'm here, where in the process should I apply antique? Don Gonzales has a good video of applying antique finish. I always do my lighter dye 1st, then I apply the antique gel. Then after antique gel drys I seal it with a sealer. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SamB Report post Posted September 7 (edited) You should always start with the lighter shade of dye first - remember you can always make it darker but not the other way around Edited September 7 by SamB Typo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
