Great pre stain!

a year ago

A little goes a long way! Spreads well before stain ensures even and non-blotchy stain results.

Essential for Antique flooring

a year ago

I frequently sand, stain, and refinish antique pine in historic Massachusetts. Minwax Pre-Stain is essential to creating an even color and I’ve completed over 4,000 square feet of projects dating back to the 1620’s with a 100% success rate.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Blotchy spots on table

2 years ago

This product did not work for my table and was a waste of money. I ended up with a blotchy tabletop after using it, which is what I tried to prevent.

No, I do not recommend this product.

Customer Support

Thank you for taking the time to review the Minwax Pre Stain Wood Conditioner. I'm sorry that the stain didn't come out more evenly. If you haven't applied a Clear, you can try removing an unabsorbed stain with mineral spirits to help lighten that area. We are concerned that your experience with our product was disappointing and we appreciate your time and feedback. If you have any questions, please contact us directly at 1-800-523-9299 or info@cbgbrandreview.com. Sincerely, R.C., Digital Care Team
