CPS23
CPS23 solvent-borne pigment stain, Antique Walnut
Ready-made solvent-borne pigment stain in Antique Walnut. Evens out colour variation and masks wood defects, levels the colour well, good lightfastness. Spray, spray-and-wipe, or roller-coat. Mixes with the rest of the CPS range and other solvent-borne stains to hit a custom shade.
- Staining furniture in any wood species
- Veneer and solid wood in an antique-walnut tone
- Evening out colour variation, walnut imitation on pale species
- Pore highlighting on oak/ash (wipe-on with CFS1 binder)

Stir thoroughly — the pigment settles. Keep shaking/stirring the cup while you work. Lay one even wet coat, no puddles; go lighter on end grain (it drinks more and goes darker). To wipe: spray, give it 1-3 min, then wipe along the grain with a sponge or lint-free rag, packing pigment into the pores (pore-highlight effect on open-grain wood — needs CFS1 binder).
Cloth or pad
Wiping with a sponge or soft rag removes the excess after spraying (Technocolor's method definition). For a pore-highlight effect on oak/ash use CFS1 binder.
Roller coater (UV)
Flat parts on a roller-coater line only (dealer: 10-20 g/m²). In the official UV (anegre) schedule the stain goes on at 60-80 g/m² (method not stated) and flashes 5 min at 20-25 °C before VTS20011 UV filler.
