  3. poly floor coating works like a charm but expensive per gallon.I used to dip key chains in it for a very durable scratch free coating.
  4. Food coloring? Posted by Iguanadon on Yesterday, 12:10 PM in General Scroll Sawing Hey Hawkeye, I use food coloring to color my dinosaur puzzles. First of all, I use DISTILLED WATER in order to avoid any mold or mildew growth since I mix up sizable batches that sit around waiting to be used. It's trial and error as to the intensity of the color. I tend to use a little extra coloring to get the most vibrant colors. Check out my dino's on my website. www.woodcraftbyscott.com My dino puzzles are made from pine and it being a softer wood, it absorbs the color nicely. But it also requires that you wipe off any excess after dipping them in the color so that the color doesn't build up around the edges of each puzzle piece. That's the only annoying thing about doing it with water based coloring. I buy food coloring from Amazon in 16oz bottles. It's rather pricey but a bottle lasts a while. I do blue, green and red. I tried making my own purple by mixing blue and red and I failed rather miserably. I then found purple food coloring but it's only available in 1 oz bottles unfortunately. Good luck, Iggy
