Solid White Oak Cabinets needed some TLC, White Pickling was our first choice, but that means a lot of stripping, scraping the varnish, repairing, patching, and sanding. Minwax is and always been my goto product, for premixed formula. The instructions on the label did not work for my refinishing, but I did finally get the results I was looking for. Use good quality pro brushes and keep them clean and dip the brush no farther than 1/4 inch into the Minwax. In my final technique, Fig 1. After sanding, lightly damping the surface and now the surface is ready to be stained. Fig 2. applied stain evenly with the grain let dry about 60 seconds. Fig 3. Strike off with light stain water mix to give a good cover. Fig 4. Allow to dry for at least 1 hour for the stain to draw into the wood. Fig 5. Brushed on last coat with the grain allowed to dry overnight. For the topcoat I applied 1 coats of Clear Polycrylic allow drying 4 hours then 200 grit sandpaper and apply second coat, allow to dry 4 hours. I applied a total 3 coats of Polycrylic. Review: Sheer white wash on pine - This product was easy to use. I used this stain for my sunroom walls. First, I sealed the wood with the campanion product, let it dry. I applied the stain against the grain of the wood and wiped it off. It dries pretty quickly and I love the sheerness of this stain...a subtle white wash. It covered the yellowness of the pine & left the wood with a white sheerness. Love it! Now, I am going to try to use it on my brick wall. ## Features - Adds a touch or age & character to bare or already stained wood - Apply over oil or water-based stain with a synthetic or foam brush, stain pad or rag. - Dries in 1 hour.

Much easier to use than diluting white paint. Color is appropriately light, but can be a bit blotchy on first application, though it evens out nicely over multiple applications. Be sure to practice first to get the look you want. Also, pre-treat your wood, and sand diligently. We found that applying the product with a sponge brush, allowing it to sit approximately one minute, and then removing evenly with paper towels provided a great effect. Can easily be applied in different ways to created a modern, or more rustic finish. We have bought multiple times, though it goes a long way. ## Frequently Bought Together - Minwax 618604444 Color Wash Transparent Layering Color, White Wash, 1 Quart - Pro Grade, Paint Brushes, 5-Piece, Paint Brush Set: Flat & Angle Brushes for Latex and Oil Paints, Stains, Interior & Exterior Home Improvement - Minwax 63333 Clear Polycrylic Water-Based Protective Finish Satin, Quart, 1 Quarts (Pack of 1) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/2290419-color-wash-transparent-layering-color-white-wash-pickling-stain-1](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/2290419-color-wash-transparent-layering-color-white-wash-pickling-stain-1) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-07*
