Rockler's got almost nothing in their catalog. What's a good place online for buying wood finishing stuff?

Norm, Due to limited catalog space we don't have a lot of finishing supplies in our printed catalog. However, we do have more to offer at our website as well as a more extensive line at our retail store locations if you are near any that you can stop in for a visit. Steve…

Rockler, as indicated, does have them. Also others, like

so forth.
Lockwood has a good selection.

Woodcraft handles the transtint water soluble dyes. Unless you have a scale, get the kind that is predisolved. I use a 10 ml syringe to measure out test batches a and scaled up batches.
I suggest that you use Homestead Finishing. IMO Jeff Jewitt is at the top of the finishing pyramid and really know his products.

I'd suggest, then, that you at least put a note in the catalog to that effect. If you hadn't responded here, I'd never have known that.

at offering help too (via his bulletin boards). Cheers, cc
Lockwood is the best IMO for selection and price on the web.
Their store in NY is quite an experience. It's like walking into one of those now extinct old time hardware stores where there's a feel of age and experience in the place and the people actually know what the hell they're talking about. Like an inverse of Home Depot. ;)

It's nice to know that Rockler, like other companies, has a presence in the NG... thanks for responding so quickly..
