Retique It Wood'nStain - Liquid Wood Gel Stain Interior/Exterior (128 oz (Gallon), Classic Black)

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.

This is a really nice product. It's easy to use and the results are very good. The only beef I have about it is the price.

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.

I absolutely love this liquid wood paint! It goes on super smooth, has amazing coverage, and gives a beautiful, natural woodgrain look. I’ve used it on several furniture pieces, and it holds up great — no streaks, no strong smell, and easy to work with. If you’re thinking about trying it, do it! You won’t regret it.

I was excited to give this product a try. Pros- easy to clean brush Cons- everything else. The primer and stain were both woefully disappointing. Extremely streaky stain that did not absorb well. I’m tempted to try on a cabinet to see if this product works better on an ultra smooth surface, I also don’t want to ruin a cabinet when it fails to work out. At $5 this might be worth the time to do 100 steps to get a good finish. At nearly $100 for a small stain and primer “can” it’s a waste of money.

Applied after using their wood paint. Exceptional! I used the wood grain tool after reading and following all directions. It is time consuming, but the results speak for themselves! It looks expensive and it’s held up well! The only downside I’ve found is that it comes busted due to its cheap packaging (not Amazon’s fault). I still used it, and I love the way it turned out!!

Gorgeous color and goes on with great coverage. While it was a little pricey, it is great quality.

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.
