Ebony Black Restorer

From 18,00 €

Ebony fingerboards are highly valued in musical instruments for their hardness, durability, and rich, dark aesthetics. However, sometimes, ebony can have lighter streaks or spots that may detract from its appearance.

Ebony Black Restorer allows luthiers to darken the ebony pieces to enhance their appearance and provide a more uniform colour.  It has good penetration and gives the wood a uniform colour; combining dyes and micronised pigments, its colouration is effective and long-lasting.

Testing on a small piece of the wood is always recommended, to avoid unexpected results.
