I found one of the practice pieces but it was not one that I had dyed or applied any finish to. You can see that the charred late wood has a little sheen even without a finish on it. I love the effect when using vertical grain wood.
I decided to apply some Transtint dye that was already mixed up just to show the effect of the dye. I flooded it pretty liberally and then wiped away any excess. I tried a little amber on the right side but it does not show up as well as the red.
