Bleach wood for better color dye

Recommended Posts

I think we should use lye to prepare wood, prior to dying, to give the dyes a better chance to show the correct colors.  The lye should bleach it down to a very pale grey color, that will have almost no impact on the dyes color.

Probably should be an option as opposed to a requirement. The realistic-feature peoples will complain dyed (stained) wooded always is a combination of its natural color and the stain. I'm all for creative freedom so that means letting the player choose whether to use a combined (wood and dye) color or use a pure dye color where the wood's color is completely removed.
