How to Use the Black Touch Up Grain Pen

1. Prepare the surface: Ensure the repair or area to be touched up is clean and ready for application.
2. Apply the colour: Remove the cap and either dab colour onto the surface or draw short, fine lines to recreate the appearance of wood grain.
3. Build up the effect: Apply carefully, adding detail gradually to achieve the desired appearance.
4. Lighten if necessary: If the application looks too dark or heavy, the original instructions recommend lightly rubbing the dried area with 0000-grade steel wool. Test this method on an inconspicuous area first, as abrasion may affect the surrounding finish.
5. Replace the cap: Close the lid securely after use to prevent the pen from drying out.

Using a Grain Pen with Hard Wax Filler Sticks

When repairing scratches, chips or dents in wooden furniture with Hard Wax Filler Sticks, the filler colour can provide a good base for the repair. However, some surfaces also have distinctive grain patterns that need to be recreated.

The Black Touch Up Grain Pen can be used to draw fine lines over a suitable repair, helping to recreate darker grain details and blend the filled area with the surrounding wood. Take care to match the direction and appearance of the original grain for a more natural-looking result.

Touching Up Black Ebonised Furniture

Black ebonised furniture has a dark finish that can become marked or worn in places. The Black Touch Up Grain Pen can be used to colour and touch up suitable small areas, helping improve the appearance of minor blemishes without treating the entire piece.

Always test the pen on an inconspicuous area first, particularly on antique furniture or delicate finishes. Follow the product instructions and allow the applied colour to dry before handling or wiping the surface.
