It makes a nice dark bark. I have never used killer hogs so I can't give tou a comparison. Also check out Dizzy pig rubs. They are a local company out of Manassas Virginia. I have loved every thing I have tried. Like rub some but, they do not, use salt as their #1 ingredient.

Yes. Great color. Also diff woods will give u diff color as well. I typically use Apple but I've done oak and pecan and it had a good mahogany color. U can also just add paprika to any rub and will add color but not much of a taste

Both this one and Killer Hogs are excellent rubs. IMO this one is the sweeter of the two and is my family's preferred rub.

Yes it creates a good color and is sweet. I love this rub. Have not tried killer hogs rubs

Thanfully yes since all my guitars are rosewoodfretboards. This fluid is not really aggressive. You need some good amount of elbow grease along with the cleaner to get that player buildup off. That's likely a good thing as it's milder nature keeps you from overstripping the fretboard's finish. Some have written that it darkens the finish but my experience is the opposite...likely due to the dark dirt and oil buildup that it removes.

This stuff isn't bad but Meguire's ultimate black works better. Or try linseed oil although it becomes a little tacky at first.

Hello. I love fresh tumeric. Make sure you peel it first and make sure you wear gloves. It is extremely staining. Stains everything. You can grate it like ginger. I put it in my green smoothies. It is so good for you. I suppose it depends on the severity if the arthritis and you would have to ask a professional but I believe it helps some and it is a better more organic way of helping instead of a pill.

Try it on a Leftover piece of your wood so you can see how it works...I've had no problem with it , you can't see it, just a matte finish with a slight grainy texture and it does wear off. I can understand your hesitation, Brazilian Pecan sounds beautiful! Good luck and let me know if it works for you.

I've never used One & Done but everyone sad that Natural Black Bronzer (the purple bottle) is better. That's the one I use and I love it! I've gotten so much darker very quickly. It smells like pia colada and isn't greasy at all.

I purchsed the product for use on dark brown leather, and noticed no difference in tone. I also tried it on an old baseball glove which, I believe, is natural cowhide and possibly similar in aniline leather in being porous. Again...no color change. Even so, I'd recommend a little test application in a spot that doesn't show, just to be sure of the result.

I would call it mahogany. Not sure about the "warm/cool" aspect, but I would describe it as dark and rich.

soapstones.com website says 'yes'....and that it creates a darker patina...YouTube also has a video you might find helpful...good luck

Jason, I've had a hard time getting it up to the desired smoking temp when it's cool & windy or just cool. I think one of the problems is that they only recommending using 12 or so starter coals. Yesterday I increased this number to 20 or so and that seemed to work better. I'll keep fooling with it and could see using up to half the coals in the chimney starter. And I've found that I need to have the top holes open more than the 5/16 they recommend. I'd say open them all the way up and then throttle them down. I also think it makes a big difference and significantly slows down the process if the meat isn't close to room temp to start. But I'll tell you, the more I use the device the more comfortable I feel with it. I'm having a retirement get together this coming Sat so started preparing for that this weekend. Using a rib rack I smoked 6 full racks of ribs on Sat and 6 more on Sun. I'd never have dreamed that 6 racks of ribs would fit on the Weber but they did. I baby sat the Sat batch pretty closely but once the Sunday batch was up to speed I only looked at about once/hour to stir the coals, add water & wood. We ate one last evening and it was good but will put the rest in the oven for 2 or 3 hours to get them more tender before serving. I hope that this (long) answer is of some help and encouragement.

Have you tried to shake it? I heard the brown is from the fragrance segment. Please shake and see if it makes any difference. :)

How long did you age your wine in it? Was yours the same with a char on the inside? I am afraid because some say this is just a "whiskey barrel" not a wine barrel! Any feedback would be great!

I've also used Mahogany. It gives a more brown color than the dark coffee color of Java. Rich beautiful color.

When I got mine a couple of years ago, I didn't get the great results from the Galeffi as I had for all those many years with the Brioschi I assumed that even though it said it compared to Broschi, the ingredients were not exact. I tried it only because the price of Brioschi had skyrocketed, and I couldn't afford it anymore. Now there is a product that has the Sodium Bicarbonate and the Tartnic Acid, called Gingera. I am considering trying that one.

Yes! It most definitely ends up perfectly brown. Think KFC original roast ;)

I typically have not used Bick4 on my boots (wolverine 1000 mile). I use Bick4 on leather furniture and it has not darkened the leather.

Hello, it's definitely a rich mahogany. I actually bought 2 of them based on the picture thinking they were less red than they actually are. If you want the rich reddish tint then I would recommend them.
