Mixing Instructions
1) Remove peel & stick color label from cartridge. Apply to 5 gal pail.
2) Remove lid from 5 gal pail of Transformation Log & Timber Stain Neutral base.
3) Cut cartridge nub with Exacto knife or cigar cutter.
4) Insert cartridge into standard caulking gun. Engage plunger until just secure in the gun.
5) Gun out product. Empty the entire contents of the cartridge into a 5 gal pail of Transformation Stain neutral base. When empty, a small amount of the tint will remain at the very top of the cartridge with a little extra so final color is not affected.
6) Mix thoroughly using a drill-driven, squirrel cage-type mixing blade, for 5 to 7 minutes. Tint should be evenly distributed and no solids left in the bottom of the pail. There should be no streaks or milkiness.
7) Mix stain periodically throughout application. Turn the drill on for a few seconds every 20- 30 minutes to ensure tint remains evenly distributed and doesn't settle to the bottom.
