Clear, Varathane Premium Oil-Based Wood Conditioner-211776, 8 fl oz

This prestain was very helpful on several DIY projects around the house. I used it on plywood I cut down for a large towel rack and also on some nightstands that I refurbished. After applying the prestain, I followed up with Varathane stain and had great results. On the coat rack (birch plywood), I did one side with the prestain and one side without and the difference was pretty noticeable. The side with the prestain was way more even and the color was much richer. It also had great coverage in that I barely used any and it covered quite a large area of wood. Would definitely recommend this product, it was well worth the extra step.

It is just what I needed to finish my project. I have pets, so I did not want harsh odors permeating the house. This product worked out great for me. The drying time was quick too.

perfect for freshing up natural wood. great for Sanitizing your wood item also..light sanding,dust it an apply enough to lightly cover. You can than apply a finish or leave natural.Good priced compared to other stores an small enough size for smaller projects.

I used this wood conditioner before staining a cheap softwood board I used to build shelves and it made a huge difference in how the stain absorbed more evenly and way less splotchy than just sanding and staining alone! Also, a little goes a long way!

Extremely effective. Priced fair.

it goes on smooth and levels out perfectly for a great look. very easy to apply, a great choice

I love redoing furniture and I like using this prior to staining. I have found my stain goes on so much better and evenly. I highly recommend this!!

Great product with very little odor. I would highly recommend. A good product to put on pinewood before staining.

Dries quickly, so be quick

follow instructions and it works perfectly.
