Double Espresso Gel Stain

The Gel Stain is an oil-based coating . It has similar characteristics to our Stain and Finishing Oil, known as SFO for short in our Paint it Beautiful Facebook Group.

However, with Gel Stain, it can be applied to virtually any surface with no prep (other than cleaning off the cobwebs!) to a surface that has been previously finished, scratched, painted etc. It’s a game-changer!

Quick facts:

• This product is a Brush On and NOT a wipe-on or wipe-back product.
• Use a natural bristle brush or a roller to apply.
• Dries to the touch in approximately 4 hours and can be re-coated at that time (always test for tackiness prior to recoating, if still tacky wait another couple hours and re-assess)
• Has a thicker gel-like consistency – each colour varies. When stirred it becomes less viscous.
• Long open time and Self Leveling.
• Comes in Quart size only in 4 different colours.
• One Coat looks like a stain. Subsequent coats become more opaque, except for Patina which will remain transparent as it contains no pigment.
• Satin Finish.

IDEAL SURFACES

• Laminate, Lacquered, previously painted or coated surfaces.
• Damaged or Scratched surfaces
• Almost a no-prep product- just clean and remove any wax or grease. No sanding or de-glossing is required to apply this.
• Extremely durable. Excellent for Flooring and heavy-use kitchen table tops etc.
• Works on Bare Wood surfaces for a beautiful satin finish.
