TERRIBLE! PLEASE DON'T USE.

a year ago
Absolutely terrible, Dries in seconds. Looks like paint, hides all wooden grain. Impossible to not have streaks, lines and blotches.

Drys too fast and not evenly on oak.

a year ago
Drys too fast to be absorbed evenly on oak. I like the color selections but they almost need to add some type of retarder to slow the drying time for a working timew of 30 minutes. I would not reccomend this product.

No, I do not recommend this product.

Thank you for taking the time to review the Water Based Stain. We apologize you did not get the desired results when using for your project. Since this is water based it does dry quicker compared to an oil based stain. If you would like to discuss your review further, please contact us directly at 1-800-523-9299 or info@cbgbrandreview.com. Sincerely, L.T., Digital Care Team

Difficult to work with

a year ago
Thick formula and quick dry time makes completing a precise result nearly impossible. You need to work VERY fast and sloppy in order to hopefully prevent pooling of the stain on the wood. I attempted this stain on standard stair treads and they were a little too big to use this product with 100% desired effectiveness. I think I only managed two boards out about 40 that didn’t have streaks of solid stain or pooling. I do like that you can use this product indoors because it doesn’t give off any odor. I’d use again on a small project during the winter when it’s too cold to work outside or in a garage with oil stain.

Paint. This is paint. This is not a stain.

a year ago
Looks like paint. Spreads like paint. Applied and wiped off within 2 min as per instructions and now I have a painted grey looking plywood instead of weathered oak stain that it is supposed to be. How exactly is this a stain ? False advertising. Stick to oil based minwax stains people.

No, I do not recommend this product.

Terrible color consistency!

2 years ago
I bought this stain for a project built of red oak. I was looking forward to working with a water based stain for cleanup. I could not be more disappointed. It provides very inconsistent color/penetration and you have to be very careful about not to get it anywhere else on your project because it will show splotches. I have tried different techniques and nothing seems to make it any better.

No, I do not recommend this product.

Thank you for taking the time to review the Water Based Stain. We apologize you did not get the desired results. We recommend the Water Based Prestain Wood Conditioner when using this stain to help with blotchiness. We do not recommend this for large projects as it can be difficult to achieve a uniform appearance and color across the surface.
