Minwax Wood Finish, Slate, 1 Quart

I have used Minwax for many years I had an antique restoration company but any formula that have come out with are extremely well thought out and made. Smell has not improved over the years however would recommend using in a well ventilated area instructions are very simple child could do it, color is true to the can the stain soaps into the softwoods very fast the longer it sets the darker the color gets hardwoods takes longer to penetrate but very beautiful colors. I hope you have as much fun with minwax as I've had over the years still used to day in home projects. keep up the good work Mimwax

Goes on smoothly, fast drying and the color is exactly as puctured. Great price

wasn't the color that I wanted but I used it to stain my wood top and the color was okay

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.

Nice color went on good

[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!!

the product that was delivered isn't the right color. i wanted slate brown and not slate Blue
