Oil-based wood stains offer several advantages over water based stains for woodworkers and refinishers. Longer open time and thicker-bodied formulations allow for effortless spreading and blending, producing rich, dark, uniform colors. But General Finishes figured out a way to get their water-based stains to work like oil-based stains, but with easy water cleanup, low odor, low VOC and noncombustiblity. It’s the best of both worlds!
Woodcraft carries a full selection of General Finishes Water Based Wood Stains, including nine new colors just off the truck! Available in pints and quarts, the new shades complement the existing line and offer even more choices for DIYers and furnituremakers.
Graystone
Onyx
Tobacco
Also available: Antique Oak, Black, Black Cherry, Brown Mahogany, Espresso, Natural, Pecan, Walnut, Weathered Gray and Whitewash.
General Finishes Water Based Wood Stains can be intermixed with each other or with paints and topcoats for full customization. This formulation reduces blotching on soft or hard-to-stain woods like pine, maple and cherry.
