What Customers Are Saying

The wood stain is generally considered a high-quality product that applies smoothly, dries quickly, and provides a rich, natural color. Many customers praise the brand's consistency and reliability. However, some have experienced issues with the color not matching expectations, appearing redder or darker than anticipated. A few also noted a strong odor from the oil-based formula. Overall, the stain is an effective product, but customers should test the color and follow instructions closely to achieve the desired results.

Stripped and sanded old floor molding, put on 2 thin coats. Let dry for 24 hours and applied a thin coat of clear enamel. Looks great! Thanks!
