Get this stuff, its awesome

I've loved the colors that I can get , this s my second color, came out beautiful.

Excellent product.

Excellent product, makes the grain of the wood really stand out.

Paint

The paint department was able to make the color that I needed

Worked perfectly

Worked perfectly and gave me plenty of time to allow penetration before wiping off excess. I was able to achieve jus the look I wanted, dark and dramatic but also allowing the wood grain to show through on the solid oak floor tiles.

Wrong color

Color did not come out like we wanted

This is like watered down paint.

I've used Minwax many times. I probably have 15-20 cans of it. I was glad to see all the color options in an oil based stain. As another reviewer stated you cannot buy the little can for small projects or to test it so had to get a quart. This version works more like the water based stain aka watered down paint. The product lays on top of the wood. Glad Minwax is trying different ideas however, don't like this one better. I'll be sticking to the original oil based style even with limited col...

Awful

I absolutely do not like this stain. They don't make a sample size so I have to buy a quart and pray that the color will work out, which it didn't. The product is so thick that it is basically paint. It does not get absorb into the wood at all. What a waste of money. I wish I read the review before I buy it. Most of the 5-star reviews are "promotional".

Lowes Stands up for Their "Make the color right"

5 stars is not for the product, but for Lowe's standing by their "you'll love the color or we'll make it right' policy. I tried 4 shades of tint before I found one we liked. Lowe's never charged me or complained about the 3 that i didn't like. That's standing by their promise.

The little stain that couldn’t.

Absolute joke of a product. Guessing the reason it is thick is due to issues with being able to tint it with paint tints. Did cover well when applied but no matter how long it’s left on, 5 minutes or an hour, all but a very tiny amount wipes off even when used on super soft wood. Could barely tell I had put it on except a little bit in the grain. Definitely not the product you need if trying to use a color unavailable in the regular stains.

Craft stain

Purchased this stain for Christmas trees I built for the yard. Very easy to use and true color.

Stain tint match

Easy to match tint needed

Good quality

Nice finish

My Loews Rewards

I used the my loews rewards (free to join) It saved me $10 on each of the 11 gallons of stain that I bought that day. $110 savings for being a my loews reward member. A free membership!

Good product needs more description of processes

I’m an amateur DIY-er and thought it would be nice to just stain my kid’s dresser. Wish it told me this was a single step in a complete process of using the product.
