A pre-stain conditioner prepares the wood surface to accept stain more evenly, preventing blotching, streaking, and dark spots, especially on softwoods and porous hardwoods.
Ensure the conditioner was applied evenly and any excess was wiped off properly. Allow the conditioner to dry for the full hour before applying stain. Check that the wood surface was properly prepared and free of contaminants.
This is normal as the conditioner raises the wood grain slightly. Lightly sand the surface with fine-grit sandpaper (e.g., 220 grit) after the conditioner has dried for one hour and before staining to achieve a smooth finish.
This is normal for water-based products. Stir the conditioner thoroughly before use to ensure an even consistency.
Clean tools immediately after use with soap and warm water. If the product has dried on, it may require more vigorous scrubbing or soaking.
Setup: Ensure the wood surface is clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, or old finishes. Apply the conditioner evenly using a foam brush, bristle brush, or clean cloth. Work the conditioner into the wood grain. Wipe off any excess conditioner that has not been absorbed by the wood after a few minutes with a clean, lint-free cloth.
Compatibility: This water-based conditioner is ideal for use with Furniture Clinic's water-based Wood Stains and Exterior Wood Stains. It can be used on all softwoods such as pine, fir, and spruce, as well as porous hardwoods like birch, maple, and alder. It is compatible with subsequent sealing coats of waxes, varnishes, or oils.
Care: Store the product in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Ensure the lid is tightly sealed when not in use. Clean application tools immediately after use with soap and water. If the product dries on surfaces, it can be removed with soap and water.
