ViviTone™ Pigment Colorants are not “universal” colorants, meaning they are specific to a particular solvent or finish medium. Unlike Mixol and CalTint Universal Tints, they work only in specific mediums. ViviTone Water-Based Colorants are for water-based finishes and stains, or those products that thin with water. Can also be used with grain fillers and solvent based shellac.
ViviTone compares to some names you may recognize. In the past they were called 896 Huls, then Degussa. They are now made by Evonik and re-packaged by Homestead.
