I would use this product again
Refinished the kitchen cabinets, wife is pleased with results. I can't ask for anything more.

Excellent Finish
Deep cherry color is hard to find elsewhere. Goes on easy and results in a beautiful finish. I used a stiff inexpensive throw-away brush to apply the gel and then wiped off the excess after 5-10 minutes. Put a second coat on the next day. Will not go back to regular oil stain again.

Absolutely wonderful!
I used this product on a curly quarter sawn white oak arts and craft bed room set. I first sprayed a transtint dye mixed in a sanding sealer shellac and then followed up with this product. I applied it with a clean cloth by hand. I was amazed at the color, uniformity, and ease. This will be one product I will recommend and use for years to come.

Keep it on your shelf
Great first experience using a gel stain. This product was easy to apply with a foam brush or clean rag. I found a rag to work better for me. Work small areas and apply enough that it wipes off easily. Don't over-work it since it will smudge if you try to even it out after a few minutes. This product dries to a gorgeous satin finish.
