Mixol Stains Finishes & Finishing Tools - Shelter Institute

Mixol is a concentrated, binder-free universal tinting paste from Germany for coloring oil finishes, stains, waxes, lacquers, varnishes and paints, sold here in 29 colors in 20 ml bottles and six colors in 200 ml.

It isn't a stain on its own. It has no binder and won't dry straight from the bottle, so you mix it into a finish, and a little goes a long way: Mixol's limits run from 3 to 5% by weight in clear finishes, glazes, stains and waxes up to 10% in latex paint. In Heritage oils, start with 2 to 3 drops per ounce and add more until you like the color. The colors mix with each other. Mixol rates its oxide colors lightfast and weatherproof for indoor and outdoor work; some of the other colors are for indoor use only.

Mixol was developed by the Swiss company Sandoz. In 1960 Willi Diebold bought the rights to make, package and refine it, and the family company MIXOL-Produkte Diebold makes it today in Kirchheim unter Teck, Germany.

Options: 29 colors in 20 ml (Nos. 1 to 28 and 99 Ocean Blue); Oxide Yellow, Oxide White and Oxide Brilliant Black, Yellow, Green and Blue in 200 ml
Type: binder-free universal tinting paste; colors intermix
Dose: Mixol's maximum by weight is 3 to 5% in clear finishes, glazes, stains and waxes, 5 to 8% in paints, lacquers and varnishes, and 10% in latex paint
In Heritage oils: start at 2 to 3 drops per ounce; about 200 ml per gallon is the darkest that still shows the grain
Lightfastness: oxide colors are lightfast and weatherproof, indoors and out
