1 gal Minwax 71000 Natural Wood Finish Penetrating Oil-Based Wood Stain

I like to torch all my lumber or most of it to pull out the wood grain.Just as I love this stain and the classic black transparent. This stuff works even better for both semi transparent and showing plenty of the natural wood grain.And the browns you get when torch wood.And the keep fine sanding the wood down to a finer grit then I finnish with steel wool 4 odd. Drys semi quick as long as you apply it in thin coats and I wipe it off semi quick.To get the desired look Im after. Then I will use a clean rag and buff it so by the time your down with this buffing .It sure wont take long for the boards to be completely dry. Then I live in phoenix arizona where its dry as a cracker.Boiled linseed oil drys fast here.

This product was so easy to use. I cleaned the surface of my front doors before I used a rag to put the stain on and it went on very easily. The front doors looked good after the first coat but I let them dry overnight and put a second coat on and they looked beautiful. I had a wood trash container in my kitchen so I used it on that also and it looked great after as well. Will definitely use this product again as needed.

The shipping was very fast. This is a great product as Minwax usually is. The color is as described but, too match my other trim, it may be too light. This may be resolved by many coats. It is easy to use and does not get messy. I recommend using a pre-stain wood conditioner, (also Minwax). I was very impressed with the fairly low odor of this stain. It is a good value for a quart which will cover a lot of wood pieces, unlike a pint. Highly recommend 5 stars plus.

I restored some Old Rocking chairs and used this. Loved the results!

I bought a quart of this stain in "golden oak" to use for some dining room chairs that came as raw pine. (This happens to be exactly the color I wanted, but if you're buying online, I suppose you'll have to guess a little.) I applied the Minwax conditioner underneath as recommended for this type of wood, put on about two coats of this stain, and then applied a few coats of   on top, all as recommended by the directions on this product.Staining was definitely the easiest part of the whole project. I wore nitrile gloves and settled on using a blue shop towel to apply (and a new one to wipe off later) -- probably a choice some people will give me funny looks for, but it worked! I also tried a brush (hard to get enough stain on it, though good for getting into corners) and rag (probably what most people would use, but I didn't really have a good supply, hence the shop towel). Letting everything dry outside is definitely best if you can due to the fumes, to say nothing of the possible mess.While the polyurethane is still curing (though dry to the touch), overall, I think the project turned out great -- and wanting to stain is what set this whole project in motion to start with.

I had an unfinished birch table top that I wanted to use as my desk. Found this stain and I love it. If you’re a beginner like me watch some tutorials online and have some practice wood if possible to get the hang of it.

I have used Minwax stains in the past so i knew the process of applying it. The Colonial Maple color was more red than shown in picture. That was a little disappointing. However my mail goal was to protect the wood planter that i just made so it can withstand elements, I used a small piece of cloth to apply and that was fairly easy. The stain flows like water so small drips were not easy to avoid. Most bare woods will suck up a lot of stain so make sure to keep in mind when ordering. My project is still ongoing and i will apply more coats. However, i will post pictures soon.

All Minwax products are excellent!
