BLACK GEL STAIN

OMG..... I love this gel stain! I used this for 6 interior doors and 2 built-in desks for a total transformation of our business office. This DIY project took my old shabby looking oak to a new modern look with this amazing black gel stain. It was much thicker than I had imagined, making it ultimately easier to work with, a quart goes a long way and I did find using a rag to apply was the best method for this gel stain. It dried fairly quickly, I applied two coats and the coverage was AMAZING! This was one of a 3 step process that I used to complete my project but this was the major part of the project and the finish look is incredible. I am very please with the outcome and very worth the small investment.

Made my metal door look like wood

This stuff was perfect for staining our front door and shutters to look like wood. Our door is metal. We wanted a wood door, but are too cheap to buy one. So we used a wood grain tool and this gel stain and love how it came out! It’s Really easy to work with and was the perfect color. The first pic is the first coat with the wood grain. Then the 2nd coat and then the final coat. Last pic is of our shutters and door together

Good product!

This product should work really good in most cases, I have used Gel stain from Rust Oleum before with absolutely no issues. I still highly recommend the product. They were quick to take action with my application of the stain and make it right and have done so. It dries quickly goes on easy It is a good value for the money!

Great stuff, takes some practice to get right.

Works as advertised. It’s easy to overdue it and make it too dark so go as light as possible. Using a rag is much better than any type of brush. A little goes a LONG way. I covered 56 feet of 3” baseboard and 56 feet of quarter round and only used about 1/8 of the can.

Outstanding

I wanted to refresh some walnut stained shelves that have seen better days. I usually use General Finishes Gel stains when working on old furniture pieces but the shelves were just old beat up pine so I decided to go with the less expensive Varethane option. The shelves were lightly sanded with 240 grit paper and then the stain was wiped on with a cloth and then wiped off 3 or 4 times. All the imperfections were gone and the stain really brought out the grain and the finish was very smooth. The shelves look great - much better than I expected and just as good as other projects that I've done using General Finishes Gel Stain.
