They are compatible with most water, solvent, lacquer and oil-based stains, coatings, shellacs, epoxies, waxes, varnishes, wood fillers, etc. Ease of tinting or mixing is often cited as the main attribute to Mixol, along with the sophisticated color palette. Mixol tints are highly resistant to heat or frost damage. They wont dry out or thicken (because they are binder-free), so there is a very long shelf/shop life. Check out our entire offering of 25 distinct colors, 11 of which are oxide-based (colors 03, 04, 05, 14, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24 & 25). The oxide-based colors are made from inorganic pigments which make them colorfast, fade-resistant and weatherproof. These oxide colors are ideal for exterior applications or where UV fading may occur. Cleanup is very easy with soap and water. Mixol tints are not flammable or hazardous. Review: Mixol universal tints ARE universal! - I purchased these tints so that I could either adjust a color of wood stain or glaze for either woodworking with oil and water based products or for faux finishing on my walls. These are the most versatile tinting mediums because they can be mixed with either water based products or oil based ones. I like them for faux finishing on my walls since I like to mix my colors from scratch, but I also use them for adjusting a color or value of a premixed glaze or paint. I recently used them for wood finishing and found the tints great when I mixed them with an oil based stain to do the woodworking in my new home since many of the 25 doors and door frames were unfinished. I purchased a wood gel stain called Java from General Finishes and I mixed it with the color "black" from my Mixol tint set. It turned into a beautiful ebony color and I'm thrilled with the results. I even had to mix the colors in batches since I had to use several cans of stain, and the results looked perfect. I started with trying to calculate a ratio, but I realized that all I had to do was to compare the colors between one batch and another. I did the comparison on a white background so that I could see the true value. Q-tips on white paper are great for this job. The Mixol tints are considered to be the best in the world. They are made by a company in Germany so all the color names are written in German. They have a chart with English translations but I find I don't even use them since I use color recognition mostly when I tint colors. There are also a number of oxide colors which are so great to use since they use tones that are inherent to earth colors. I like doing Tuscan colors and these tints are perfect when you want to get a warm glow like "yellow ochre." I went to many classes years ago for faux finishing and my instructor used Mixol tints exclusively, mixing all her glazes from scratch. I never forgot that lesson and still practice those time worn lessons of success. You can find endless videos to learn how to begin. You cannot use these tints as stand-alone color mediums since they contain only pigment and no binders, but that is the beauty of them. There are other products like those made by "Golden" which sell the binders alone so that you can control the thickness, translucency, texture, sheen and open times of your paint or glaze. These are described as the most potent tints in the world so a little goes a long way, and they never dry out. If you are somewhat adventurous or creative, you will really enjoy using these tints. You can tint just about anything used in construction although it is almost unnecessary since there are already many premixed colors like grout, cement, etc. However, it is far more cost effective to mix your own. It is much cheaper to purchase a can of translucent glaze or wood stain which are void of color. I especially like to mix small batches when I want some randomness to my wall or wood piece (and I don't just use wood tone colors for my furniture!) I never paint a wall anymore using one color. My first coat is considered my base coat which I put on with a roller over the entire wall surface. After that I begin to layer color on using either a faux finishing brush, sponge, rag, etc. and may have on average, four different colors in varying intensity. This kind of faux finishing is what adds depth to a design and why our eyes find beauty in a painted work of art on canvas. When you look at a wall that is painted without a pattern, your eyes will always enjoy looking at that finished wall. Depending on your color choices, you can create a very restful or exhilarating space. Wallpaper companies get big bucks by selling you designs which mimic a faux finish. However, they cannot create a random pattern, and I find it unappealing to notice the short repeats. I am not a born artist. I just like color and enjoy working with my hands. So you don't need to be an expert to achieve pleasing results. Practice does make success though! Review: Worked well. - The ocean blue dye worked well for me but I only used it to slightly tint my white paint because I could not tell the difference between the coats. I think the 20ml should last long enough to dye several gallons of paint but I am making a hue closer to powder blue so I don't know how far it will go if you use enough to get the ocean blue hue. The eye dropper style nozzle made it easier to control how much is being added. It mixed in well and did not separate after sitting in the can of mixed paint for several days. ## Features - Most concentrated, highest quality tints on the market today - Easy soap and water cleanup, not flammable or hazardous - Highly resistant to heat or frost damage - Won't dry out or thicken so there is a very long shelf/shop life ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00G0TWGR0 | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Best Sellers Rank | #3,098 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ( See Top 100 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ) #4 in Paint Mediums & Additives | | Brand Name | Mixol | | Color | #23 Dark Brown - Oxide | | Color Code | #23 | | Container Type | Can | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 4.3 out of 5 stars (2,863) | | Indoor Outdoor Usage | Outdoor | | Is Waterproof | True | | Item Form | Wax | | Item Volume | 200 Milliliters | | Item Weight | 0.01 Ounces | | Manufacturer | Mixol | | Model Name | S/01 | | Model Number | G/23 | | Paint Type | Oil | | Part Number | G/23 | | Size | 6.8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) | | Special Features | Fade Resistant | | Specific Uses For Product | Exterior | | Surface Recommendation | Wood | | Unit Count | 6.8 Fluid Ounces | | Water Resistance Level | Water Resistant | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Mixol - **Color:** #23 Dark Brown - Oxide - **Indoor/Outdoor Usage:** Outdoor - **Item Volume:** 200 Milliliters - **Paint Type:** Oil - **Size:** 6.8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) - **Special Feature:** Fade Resistant - **Specific Uses For Product:** Exterior - **Surface Recommendation:** Wood - **Unit Count:** 6.8 Fluid Ounces ## Images ![- Universal Tints (#23 Dark Brown - Oxide) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51kvaJI0StL.jpg) ![- Universal Tints (#23 Dark Brown - Oxide) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/21W067kUxWL.jpg) ![- Universal Tints (#23 Dark Brown - Oxide) - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/412FHUV07jL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: how much tint i need for a 5 gallon white paint bucket to make it tan** A: This will not even tint a gallon. I just tried to tint a single gallon and it hardly changed the color. **Q: I'm thinking of using the "ocean blue #99" for an unfinished wood floor. has anyone else done this? what was your process? do you have any pictures?** A: Hi, you can put Mixol #99 into any type of floor finish (oil, water, alcohol, polyurethane) but don't use more than 10% by volume. It is better to keep the volume down and build up the color with two or more coats. **Q: will this work with polycrylic?** A: Never used polycrylic before. But I've read that polycrylic is water based acrylic w/a little polyurethane. Mixol is definitely water based so it might be able to tint the polycrylic you are using. I'm no expert, so you may have to call the company in Germany or call up Woodcraft which sells the Mixol for further information. Could just buy a small quantity and try on some wood scrap or whatever you are painting. **Q: Will these mix with polyester resin?** A: Hello Rissa,I asked my Tech department and they said that Mixol tints are not recommended for polyester resins. Sorry about that. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Mixol universal tints ARE universal! *by C***. on January 2, 2013* I purchased these tints so that I could either adjust a color of wood stain or glaze for either woodworking with oil and water based products or for faux finishing on my walls.

The vice on the left is a restoration of a 1977 bullet vice. The vice on the right is brand new. The color on the new device is not available for purchase. With this product I was able to re-create durable hammered finish and complete my restoration project. I’m not a painter, but this was the perfect solution to create paint. That’s no longer available. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.il/products/18476091-universal-tints-23-dark-brown-oxide](https://www.desertcart.co.il/products/18476091-universal-tints-23-dark-brown-oxide) --- *Product available on Desertcart Israel* *Store origin: IL* *Last updated: 2026-05-23*
