What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise the smooth, even application and translucent finish that enhances wood grain beautifully. Most appreciate the fast drying time, low odor, and easy cleanup, making it ideal for indoor projects. Many highlight its ability to work over painted surfaces without sanding. However, color outcomes are polarized—while many love the available shades, others report unexpected results or received untinted products. Some note the consistency runs thicker than expected, behaving more like paint than traditional stain. Despite these concerns, most customers recommend it and express strong repeat purchase intent.

Cool looking effect
Would RecommendLove the way this effect looks. Especially after it has aged a bit. Only issue is consistency between different cans. Definitely can tell they are different even though they were stirred and applied the same.

Very difficult!!
Would Not RecommendUsed the black stain and was very difficult to to get even without start stop areas. Dries as fast as putting on so when wiping off leave start and stop lines, had to resend and work with 2 people applying and trying to wiping to consistent finish, then sanded twice after with steel wool to even out finish. thick like pudding and dries before able to wipe evenly!!
