Minwax Wood Finish, Driftwood, 1/2 Pint

Several months ago we purchased an 80 year old cottage that has a goodly amount of the original 1 1/4 inch hardwood flooring. We have "touched" almost ever. square foot of the floors, ceilings and walls. One evening we rolled a good coat of this polyurethane over the hardwood then got in the van and drove the 800 miles back home. When we returned 10 days later we were greeted by some of the most beautiful floors you will ever see. The surface is hard, smooth and squeaky clean as can be. Next is some new, made by my FIL, furniture....a Montgomery bed and a sewing table for my quilting wife.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had great results using Minwax Oil-Based Stain on my wood projects. It applies smoothly, penetrates well, and brings out the natural beauty and grain of the wood. I like that it offers rich, consistent color and gives projects a professional look when applied correctly. I typically finish my pieces with a beautiful clear coat, and the final result always looks clean, durable, and high-end. Overall, Minwax Oil-Based Stain has been a dependable product for me and one I continue to use on all of my wood projects.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product has never done me wrong. The company is constantly coming out with new colors. Can't beat it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use Gunstock 231 for most of my finishes. I love the look it adds to oak. Between the penetrating stain and the Minwax water based Poly, two great products.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter and I applied the original oil based Minwax penetrating oil based stain in Golden oak on stripped oak planks that are over 60 years old. The stain was applied with a high quality polyester bristle brush for applying stain and a lot of hand rubbing after allowing the stain to penetrate for about 10 mins. Wow, it looks great!!

We use minwax oil based penetrating stain,because if the rich color it brings out in wood! The furniture we paint and stain for our customers get nothing but the best! When used correctly with the minwax pre-stain the product shows an even color throughout the project

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have tried very wood finish on the market and theirs is the very best !! Everything is super natural and gives off a beautiful finish. The stain color never dulls and allows the piece to look great for years!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After trying out several wood stains for my art work other brands could not compare. Since then I only use Minwax Wood Finish for all my artwork. The colors penetrate beautifully, Enhancing every piece. I have ever single color I can get my hands on.

I own a 100 + year old colonial home and my pet peeve is people that paint over natural woodwork. Last winter I decided to start refinishing some interior doors. I completed five so far and got fantastic results using Min wax pre stain conditioner, Min wax Wood Stain and of course Min wax Polyurethane. Mmm. The wood stain brought out all the natural grain in the doors and then 3 liberal coats of Min wax gloss polyurethane. OMG, I Can see my reflection in the finish. I want to emphatically state for the record that I am an amateur wood worker and just followed the instructions on the product labels. To close my review Min wax has opened up a whole new world of restoration projects around my home. Over this past spring I began taking down all of the bannisters and have completed restoration on 7 of 8 and they look fantastic and then stripped and refinished the bar top in my basement. Thank you for creating some amazing products for a laymen wood enthusiast. Drew Modic
