Tim Holtz Distress Stains

These fluid water-based dyes are for papers and other porous surfaces, and made from the same innovative distress formulation as the Distress Inks.

Use for quick and easy ink coverage for backgrounds and larger areas like tags, canvas, idea-ology trimmings, etc.

Mist with water to lighten colour and create mottled effects or apply layers of stain to achieve more saturated colour.

The tip is a fabric covered dabber top with a built-in spring valve (like a stamp cleaner bottle). This allows for controlling the release of distress stains right from the bottle simply by pressing down onto surface. The valve opens and stain releases, then just lift away to stop the flow, or swipe lightly across the surface to spread out the stain.

The Distress Stains coordinate the all of the other Distress products including the Embossing Powders, Stickles, and most importantly Distress Ink Pads.
