Lighten Any Wood
$7
Love the grain but hate the orange? Cherry, mahogany, and pine can carry pink and orange tones that fight every modern finish you try.
This guide gives you the simple two-part mix I use to lift those tones out of the wood, and exactly how to apply it safely.
Inside this guide:
Safety before you mix: the precautions that make this manageable
The recipe, with exact amounts for a nightstand or tabletop (double it for a dresser)
Why it works, in plain language
How to prep, mix, apply, and neutralize, step by step
Before and after photos so you know what to expect
This mix uses lye and a strong peroxide developer, the same two active ingredients in commercial two-part wood bleach. Please read the safety page before you start.
