Subject: RE: BS: Making Tobacco Stain
That's a terrible story, Rap.
With an experience like that, it's a wonder you didn't grow up weird!


I've used the liquid that was deep enough to sit above the tobacco in the bottle. The stuff I'm using now seems sort of thick..almost a thin syrup.
The yellow color seems to have been part of the top liquid.
Now I'm staining a lovely shade of brown and the nut is almost the color of a nice tobacco tooth. The saddle is spending the night wrapped in my stain-smearer so it can catch up.

This browner shade doesn't seem to be as sticky while it's drying.
