I am trying to match kitchen knotty pine from the 50's. Will this sink into the knotts and make them dark like the old ones are?

It is Orange Shellac. It will darken the wood. I would take a sample piece of the new wood and experiment. Give the knots a double coat.

I would not. These are a brushed bronze...on natural cherry, you would want a darker color...an antiqued/brushed black. If you put these on a natural cherry, I think they would look almost like a tarnished brushed nickel...it would bring out a yellow-ish tint. I used them on a beige/bronze high gloss paint for cabinet makeover, and they look dark. I did trim in a dark cherry color and had to redo to a colder brown (not warm cherry with red hues). Hope this helped!

Hi Andy, Do you have a picture? I know pics can sometimes be decieving, but it really could help me better understand the target color amber you are trying to hit. From there, I could attempt to coach you through a color formula that will hopefully get you pretty close to where you want to be. Otherwise, on Pine, you will want to take it very light with these dyes, they really are quite powerful. A very diluted formula of say 1/8th tsp of yellow, a few grains of brown (literally just like 5-10 grains- the darker color will be very pronounced in a soft wood and especially in a light color) - and about 1/4th of a pea size of red dye (maybe like 20-30 grains to 8-12 ozs hot water. Then, just add a couple grains to adjust the color until you hit your target. If the color is missing something and you just cant quite put your finger on it, try 2-3 grains of blue. I know it sounds odd, but the blue can adjust your green tint, especially in a yellow based stain. Hope that helps with some direction buddy.... Thank you again, Keith Keda Dyes Inc

Yes, it will to some extent. It is solvent based but remember it is a wax. If you have a scrap of wood; I think Sherwin Williams will match stain. Anyway, they used to.

There is a reddish hue to the finish. I have it paired with Duncan Phyff which works. I think it would blend well with cherry.

The wood I got was dense enough to sink. I had no problems, bit it did turn my water a little brownish after a few weeks because I didn't clean it properly.

It depends if your cabinets are a light oak. This piece is a darker/distressed oak. I do love this island!!

I would prime it first if you using a light color paint. Darker colors the pine will do fine. Love love love this paint. Highly recommend it.

The cured product is the same color as dark brown sugar. It will fill small voids but it is not a filler unless mixed with sawdust.

It would be sad to tape or glue a nice, natural fiber rope. And, none of them will last as long as the rope -- especially if exposed to the weather.Google "Matthew Walker knot", "Wall and crown knot" or "Manrope knot" if you can have a small knob on the end of the rope. If not, try a "Whipping knot". All will hold up better and will look better, too.

I have used this on pine toys.It's like you dampened it with water.Not real dark.You will love it.

The company was outstanding to work with and the price/quality was very good. They are true to color of photos, are dark, and do have a hint of the bronze. Contact them and ask about their return policy. My sink is a lighter brownish composite and they look great. Not sure about black...that's a matter of taste but I think you should try to match the faucet.

I can't say for sure but it looks like pressed wood which of course could possibly contain pine. I would e-mail or call the manufacturer or seller and ask.

Dark enough to look nice? Yes, I think so. We used them on (among other things) the legs of cherry and walnut chairs. It won't be an identical match if that's what you mean, though.

I have used this kit with pine and had no issues. But using glue and not over tightening the screws can ensure you don't crack the soft pine and still have a strong joint.

Looks like pine, untreated. Could easily be stained or varnished to your preferance.
