Product Information

Full details

Littlefair's Black Ebony Wood Stain is designed for DIY enthusiasts and woodworkers looking to achieve a professional, aged appearance on bare timber surfaces like furniture, doors, and moldings. This water-based formula provides exceptional depth and character by penetrating the grain, making it ideal for indoor projects where a high-quality finish is desired. Please note that this stain is intended exclusively for bare, sanded wood; it will not adhere to previously finished surfaces and must soak directly into the fibers to be effective.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can I use this on outdoor furniture?

This product is specifically formulated for indoor wood projects and should not be used for exterior timber.

Do I need to sand the wood before applying?

Yes, the wood must be bare and sanded to allow the water-based formula to penetrate the grain.

How do I clean my brushes after use?

Since it is a water-based stain, simply wash your brushes thoroughly in warm, clean water.

Can I apply this over a varnish?

No, it will not penetrate through existing finishes. The finish must be removed first.

Is the stain safe to use indoors?

Yes, it is low-odour and free from harsh toxic chemicals, making it ideal for indoor furniture projects.

How long does it take to dry?

The formula is fast-drying, though exact times vary based on room temperature and humidity levels.

Troubleshooting

Stain is running off the surface

The wood is likely already finished. You must strip or sand the wood back to the bare, porous surface for the stain to penetrate.

Colour appears uneven or patchy

Ensure the wood is sanded uniformly. Uneven sanding can lead to inconsistent absorption of the pigment.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Eco-friendly and low-odour formula
Provides a rich, professional aged look
Simple water-based cleanup
Fast-drying for efficient project completion
Hand-crafted quality from British heritage

Cons

Cannot be applied over existing finishes or varnishes
Requires bare wood preparation
Liquid formula may require care during application to avoid drips

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best results, start with a clean, dry, and sanded surface. If there is any existing paint, varnish, or oil on the wood, you must strip or sand it off completely, as the stain will run off non-porous surfaces.
