Crafted for maximum impact, Old Masters Gel Stain is highly pigmented and oil-based, ensuring that each application delivers intense, uniform color. Its thick consistency allows for easy application and superior control, ensuring that you can achieve a rich, even finish with minimal effort. This means fewer coats and more time to enjoy the new look of your space.

Applications

✔️ On Bare Wood

Apply stain liberally with brush or soft rag and remove excess, wiping in the direction of the grain. For a darker color, re-stain when first coat is dry. For a lighter color, wipe with a rag dampened with paint thinner before stain has dried.

✔️ On Fiberglass & Composition Surfaces

To create a simulated wood look, apply stain to painted surface with foam or bristle brush or cheesecloth using long, smooth strokes. Realistic woodgrain patterns can be created by using the Old Masters Wood Graining Tool, as illustrated in the Old Masters Wood Graining Booklet.

✔️ Over Painted Surfaces

Make a grand entrance with doors that impress. Whether it's your front door or interior doors, a coat of Old Masters wiping stain adds elegance and charm.

✔️ Over Previously Finished Surfaces

Scuff sand surface before application. Remove dust. Apply a liberal coat of Gel Stain with a firm synthetic brush or lint-free rag and work the stain across and into the grain uniformly, feathering out streaks while stain is wet. Wipe brush often on a lint-free rag to remove excess stain.
