Mick You can get some nice effects with tap tints thinned with thinners and wiped on to wood , cork. On wood a heavy coat, then sanded lightly it stays in the grain.

Mick my best results in this is to tint the finish not the cork, the stuff I dyed the cork faded big time and it wasn't even out in the sun.
