Varathane Premium Gel Stain for Golden Pecan, Half Pint

Varathane Premium Gel Stain is the ultimate solution for staining vertical surfaces without the mess of drips, runs or other common application issues. Designed for vertical surfaces including doors, window trim, and furniture, it creates a natural wood look on fiberglass and composite doors. With a thicker, more viscous formula than traditional stains, Varathane Gel Stain develops rich colors and enhances wood grain for a beautiful patina and outstanding coverage.

Formulated with a thicker consistency, the gel stain is effective in preventing drips and runs, providing twice the coverage of traditional oil-based stains. Drying to the touch in just 1 hour and covering up to 60 sq. ft. per half pint, it allows for a 2-hour interval between coats. The stain applies evenly without causing lap marks or grain raise, although it is not recommended for use on floors, decks, or siding.

To protect your projects, it is advised to topcoat with Varathane Premium Interior or Outdoor Polyurethane after the gel stain has dried for a minimum of 4 hours. This enhances the natural beauty of the wood grain with a long-lasting, rich deep color.

The thicker formula of Varathane Premium Gel Stain is designed to prevent common application issues associated with traditional stains. By maintaining a viscous consistency, the stain is able to adhere to vertical surfaces without the risk of drips or runs, ensuring a smooth and even application. This makes it an ideal choice for projects involving doors, window trims, and furniture, where a clean and professional finish is desired.

In addition to its superior application properties, Varathane Gel Stain also boasts excellent coverage and color development. The rich, deep hues it produces beautifully enhance the natural grain of the wood, creating a stunning patina that is both aesthetically pleasing and durable. This makes it a popular choice among woodworkers and DIY enthusiasts alike, who seek to achieve a high-quality, professional-looking finish on their projects.

To ensure the longevity and protection of the stained surface, it is recommended to apply a topcoat of Varathane Premium Interior or Outdoor Polyurethane. This protective layer not only seals in the vibrant color of the gel stain but also adds an extra layer of durability, making the finished product resistant to wear, tear, and environmental factors.

Overall, Varathane Premium Gel Stain is a versatile and high-performing product that delivers exceptional results on a variety of vertical surfaces. Its unique formula and application properties make it a standout choice for those seeking a hassle-free and professional-grade staining experience.
