Pros:
Smooth Operator: This stuff applies like a dream, leaving no streaks or residue. My bare wood went from thirsty to prepped and ready for stain in minutes.
Water-Based Winner: No harsh fumes or messy cleanup! This water-based formula is a breath of fresh air compared to traditional oil-based conditioners.
Stain Savior: The stain went on like butter, soaking evenly into the wood without blotching. It definitely made the whole process less stressful.
Easy Does It: The instructions were clear and concise, perfect for DIY beginners like myself.
Cons:
Not a Magician: While it helped even out the stain, it didn't magically fix imperfections in the wood itself. Sanding is still your friend!
Subtle Boost: The color enhancement is subtle, so don't expect a dramatic transformation. It mainly helps the stain look its best.
Pricey Potion: It costs a bit more than some other conditioners, but for me, the ease of use and water-based formula were worth it.
I DIDN’T use it on the farmhouse-style dining room table because the stain I used advertised that no conditioner was needed. The stain was splotchy and took a lot of time to work out and correct. I wound up going through an entire quart on this one table, and I firmly believe it’s because I didn’t condition the wood first.
Do note that you need to allow sufficient time for this product to dry before applying stain. I live in a humid environment and complete my projects outside, so it actually took about 90 minutes to fully dry.
Overall, solid product at a fair price. Recommend!
