What Customers Are Saying
The water-based solid stain has a mixed reception. Many found it easy to apply and clean up, with good coverage and vibrant colors. The water-based formula was appreciated by those with sensitivities. However, some customers had issues with the stain drying too quickly, making it difficult to apply evenly. The color matching also seemed inconsistent. The stain may be better suited for smaller projects where the quick drying time is less of a challenge. Customers recommend thoroughly testing the product on scrap wood before the final application.

I ordered Old English stain and I got white paint

Worst stain-basically paint
I’ve stained many things in my life and this is by far the worst stain I’ve ever bought. It’s basically just paint. It says to wipe it off after two minutes, good luck it just sticks and is literally like wiping paint off. It doesn’t work. It is ruined a table that I was working on. Now I have to sand it all off and start over.

Not a true stain.
This does not apply or penetrate like a traditional stain. It is very thick and sits on the surface like a paint. Work time is too short to get consistent even coverage. Must work in small areas to accommodate and ensure you don't end up with application lines/marks in the finished product.
