Varathane 297428 Premium Fast Dry Wood Stain, Worn Navy, 32 oz, Quart

Easy to work with, mild scent, beautiful color.

My table was a light wood and I wanted it dark, so I bought this. I sanded it down first (followed those instructions) then put the stain on. It said to wait 3 minutes, then wipe stain off. I did this, and there was virtually no color change. So I left it on overnight and never wiped any of it off and got this gorgeous dark brown table that has a glossy finish.I've since purchased polyurathane and intend to seal it, but 3 days in (so far) and it looks great! I even had some friends over for dinner and we used glasses sans coasters and the wood/varnish remained 100% in tact.LOVE the way this turned out! Also, happy I could get the HALF pint as it's all I needed for the project.

This product worked as advertised. It covered bear wood in one coat and is weather resistant to this point cleanup is with mineral spirits beware of that. It does not clean up with soap and water.

Exactly the color I wanted. Took a really long time to dry. Over 24 hours and the color was still rubbing off onto my hands when I touched the wood. Used on fir kiln dried lumber.

It's perfect and always consistant. It will last a long time and goes far. I just wish they would package it differently so the can doesn't rust out before you get to use it all.

Was easy to apply and makes my bat look amazing! It takes a while to dry but in the end it is worth it.

Seems concentrated. Lots of pigment. Goes on very dark, even when wiping excess immediately instead of waiting up to 5 minutes. If you don’t want the wood to absorb that much, I recommend using this brand’s pre-stain wood conditioner. Absorption likely depends on the wood, also.One of the 5 colors looked like a return. Lock clips were missing from top of can. That one came sealed in a plastic bag, and there were dried stains around the lid. Also, that can was a little less full compared to the other 4 colors. We didn’t need much, so it was fine for us.We used em on several different smaller projects and are reasonably happy with all the results. The Amazon prices are reasonable compared to local stores, and the color selection / availability was decent. Would recommend.

its more affordable online. if u got time to wait this is a great buy. long as your prep work is good the product does great. i found out the hard way
