Product Details

Minwax® Pre-Stain Wood Conditioner penetrates the grain of the wood to promote uniform acceptance of oil-based wood stain.

  • Minwax Pre-Stain Wood Conditioner is specifically designed for use before staining new or bare softwood surfaces; many soft or porous woods, like pine and maple, have a tendency to absorb stain unevenly

  • Penetrates the grain of the wood to promote uniform acceptance of stain

  • Helps prevent streaking and blotching to help ensure a beautiful, even stain

  • Recommended for any soft or porous woods; common examples include pine, fir and spruce (soft) or maple, alder and aspen (porous)

  • Size: 236 mL

    Worked to some degree.

    a month ago
    Worked as advertised for the most part. The Maple I was staining was marginally less blotchy when compared to the Maple I didn't treat with it. I didn't try it on any other types of wood yet.

    Thank you for your review. The Prestain Wood Conditioner can help with the blotchiness of the stain when applying it to the wood, but depending on the type it may not remove it completely. If you would like to discuss your review further or have any questions, please contact us directly at 1-800-523-9299 or info@cbgbrandreview.com. Sincerely, L.T., Customer Support Specialist MINWAX

    Stain pre conditioner

    10 months ago
    It only partially stopped blotchiness when staining pine and made it quite difficult to get a dark tint to the stain after the pre treatment, even with multiple coats

    Works very well

    a year ago
    I was building a small gate using basswood and knew it would be blotchy if I just used stain. This product worked very well to even out the stain. One thing I learned was to make sure to use enough of this product otherwise it can still be blotchy. I kept putting it on the wood until it didn’t soak in anymore, then I wiped it off and let it dry. That did the trick and gave good results.
