Review Image by Amazon Customer Amazon Customer
When we unboxed the the wooden dog crate we weren't sure what we going to do with it. Paint or stain, paint or stain? My wife found different reviews that recommended General Finishes products. These products are fantastic to use and using the foam brush, wipe excess and wait method we ended up with the best finish that we have ever accomplished. And we have stained some furniture over the years. Very happy with the products in their application, coverage and finished results. ... show more

    • First time using this product and was very pleased
Size: 1 Quart Color: Spiced Walnut
Used my "shelter in place time" to finally get some decent desktop space built and chose General Finishes to stain and seal it based off from my internet research. I am not an accomplished wood worker or finisher by any stretch. I've applied stain and finish numerous times in the past with varying degrees of success. Working with this stuff was just great. I used a wood conditioner on my pine 2x8 construction project and the Spicy Walnut stain went on perfectly. The wife looks at my vast battleship of a desk with envy now and she's the one with the nice Amish Oak desk so I think I did well with the help of this product. I also liked how well the cans were packaged for shipment, with the clips on the lids to help prevent them from popping off and leaking everywhere. Note, since I bought the stain and the sealer at the same time I'll be cut-and-pasting these comments to the other review as the experience was the same. ... show more

    • More Like Paint Than Stain! Too Heavy/Thick!
Size: 1 Quart Color: Warm Cherry
Yes, it was easy to use and will probably last forever, but it goes on way too thick/heavy. It completely covers the grain of the wood. More like paint than stain. I wanted the grain of the wood to show through, like what they show in the pictures, but it doesn't, AT ALL!

    • Candlelight is reddish, clear stain
This might be the only true oil based stain available so get it while you can. Candlelight has quite a bit of red in it so perfect for getting a deep warm walnut look. It handles perfectly, wipe if off immediately and your wood will be beautiful. It blends well with other clear, transparent stain colors if you need to temper it down a bit. ... show more
