Product Description
The Colwood Replaceable Tip Heavy Shading Wire is an S tip with Heavy Wire (3/16") for Heavy Shading. The shading tip is designed to scorch large areas of wood, especially for gradient tones, shading, and filling in.
The base of the Colwood Replaceable Woodburning Shading Tip works great for filling in black areas, such as signage, or in the background of a signature. You can also use the Shading tip to gently overlap layers to produce soft gradient tones, somewhat like the ones you would use to create portraitists.

You will need a Replaceable Tip Handle, This handle plugs into your Colwood woodburning unit. A replaceable woodburning tip can then be placed in the handle, heated and you are ready to do some woodburning.
The handle can be used with a variety of tips that allow you to create different effects, while the Colwood Woodburner provides consistent heat for an even burn. Together, these two tools will help you create beautiful wood-burned projects.
To keep your tip clean, use a leather honing strop, with aluminum oxide. Simply place a small amount of oxide on the strop and pull the woodburning tip across the strop surface to clear the tip of the carbon. This is the best method because it does the least amount of damage while restoring them to a bright finish that creates clean strokes.
