• Final color may vary depending on the wood species used
• Grain, texture, and absorbency affect how stain appears
• Natural variation is part of the character of real wood
• Each project will have its own unique finish
• Always test the stain on a small, hidden area before full application

1. PREP THE SURFACE

Start with clean, dry wood. Lightly sand and remove any dust or residue to help the stain absorb evenly.

2. TEST & APPLY

Try the stain on a small, inconspicuous area first. Apply with a brush, cloth, or applicator in the direction of the grain.

3. WIPE & LET DRY

After a few minutes, gently wipe away any excess to reach your desired tone, then let it dry fully.

4. SEAL THE SURFACE

Once dry, protect and enhance the finish with a clear topcoat. Matte, Satin, or Gloss, depending on your preference.

For best results, begin with our Degreaser to ensure a clean surface, and finish with one of our protective topcoats.

• Allow the surface to fully cure before regular use
• Avoid moisture, heavy handling, or cleaning during the curing period
• Clean gently with a soft cloth and mild soap when needed
• Do not use harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or scrubbing tools
• Protect from standing water, excessive heat, and prolonged direct sunlight
• Use coasters, mats, or felt pads to help preserve the finish
  

With proper care, your stained and finished surface will age beautifully over time.
