Rob,Last week, in another thread, you asked me about using several chemicals on Maple.Here's a test board I made over the weekend. It's a piece of (not very good) curly maple, with the three chemicals I mentioned - BiChromate of Potash - a Liberion Finishes product;Potassium Permanganate - Got mine at Sears, and;Household Lye (Sodium Hydroxide) - from the hardware store.There's no finish on any of the samples - just the chemicals mixed in warm water, painted on, and allowed to dry.
