CPS51
CPS51 Solvent-borne pigment stain, classic walnut
Solvent-borne pigment wood stain, ready colour 'classic walnut'. Evens out colour variation and hides wood defects, levels well, good lightfastness. Gives a calm natural walnut tone on pale species; with CFS1 binder it can be sprayed and wiped to pick out the pores of oak and ash. Intermixes with other CPS colours and solvent-borne stains for custom shades.
- Staining furniture in any wood species
- Veneered panels and solid wood
- Evening out colour variation, walnut look on pale species (birch, beech, alder, pine)
- Pore highlighting on oak/ash (spray + wipe with CFS1 binder)

S10 — fast, for fine-pore wood (beech, birch, maple, alder); S12 (NC thinner) — medium evaporation, for medium-pore wood; S90 — slow, for open-grain wood (oak, ash); also use S90 on big panels or in a hot shop — it gives time to wipe.

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. In the official UV schedule the stain flashes 5 min at 20-25 °C before VTS20011 UV filler.
