What is your favorite dye?

[gybe!]

So, my body is now done (white limba) and on its way to me so I need to finalize which dye I am going to go with.  With so many different options out there I am having a difficult time choosing!  I have been leaning towards an alcohol/solvent based dye, but even then there are a number of brands and options.  So, I turn to those more experienced out there: What is your favorite dye and why?

I mostly use MEK dye from Luthiers Mercantile or Trans Tint from Stew/Mac depending on the color I'm going after.  There are a few other things I use but those cover the majority of the colors I need.  Bottom line for me is I stay with products that can be mixed in thinners; I stay away from waterborne stuff because it raises grain to much.

Hope that helps.

Growing up it was either Green Envy or Pillarbox Red Manic Panic. I have only used transtint on guitars but it is pretty flexible and the colors were great!
