What Customers Are Saying

The product offers a mixed performance, with some users reporting excellent results in terms of ease of use, quick drying time, and a rich, glossy finish. However, a significant number of customers experienced issues like uneven, blotchy, or inconsistent results, as well as difficulties with application. The color may not always match expectations. Overall, the product seems to require careful application and may not work well for all projects or wood types, so testing on a small area is recommended.

Molasses and honey….

I’ve never stained before but had some deck boards needing a refresh. Tried this and it was very sticky, very messy, and it went on like molasses and honey. The color was nice and I like the sheen. I’m very okay with the staining job I did. Only needed one coat. Used a good deck paintbrush. This is a great brand and good quality, just not what I expected for stain.
