Retique It Wood'n Stain - Liquid Wood Gel Stain Interior/Exterior (16 oz (Pint), 35 Dark Oak)

Great stain, we used the liquid wood in light wood and then this stain over it, we bought the wood grain tool but preferred the brush strokes from a paint brush. Still looked amazing once complete. You can't even tell they are painted and it looks like real wood. Have not sealed yet.

The birch custom built 1952 kitchen cupboards are an orange that gets worse with age. This product has given them new life. The ease of application is what attracted me. Stripping then sanding then staining, oh no. I scrubbed and/or gave a slight sanding before application. They now look fresh and clean and are ready for the next 70+ years.

Very easy process!! The longest part is the dry time. So much better than sanding!!

I had a kitchen table top that was the old orange color stain so I bought a Retique It kit with the stain and wood grain tools. It turned out pretty good. I messed up on one side with the grain tool but it was easy to reapply the stain and redo. A light sanding before starting, no need to remove old stain first and lots less work involve. I definitely recommend Retique It.

Please don’t buy, It supposed to be a gel but it’s more like a liquid. I tried it on my ash wood kitchen table and it looks horrible. Very blotchy .. i stirred it and put it on as directed.

I liked it but too expensive!

I have tried gel stain from home depot and it works fine but this stuff is different and more uniform and realistic looking. I tried it on a worn down almost cherry wood color table and it transformed it beautifully. When dried it produced a more matte finish and now I need to decide if I will use semi gloss to seal it or matte top coat to keep the rustic look. When I run my hand along the table it feels grainy so you will need to use a top coat to finish.

This paint is the easiest to whitewash furniture. I didnt even need to sand my desk which was a Golden oak. A little bit went a long way.
