Descripción

A solution or dispersion of a colorant in a vehicle that renders it capable of penetrating a material such as wood or fabric, but not capable of forming a protective surface. Also, a reagent used in microscopy to make visible minute structures. Typically, the transparency and fluidity of a stain will allow the base texture of the object to remain visible.
