Easy

This gel stain is the real deal. I used it to stain a fiberglass front door and it looks really good with just one coat. I used a sponge brush and it applied evenly

Easy to use, beautiful colour, no odor and afforda

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We are obsessed! We recently got our backyard fence done and decided to try this stain and oh we love the color! It is so easy to use, the colour is beautiful and exactly as described and there is no bad smell at all. It dried very quick and we waited an hour to see how it would look and it's perfect! The clean up was also a breeze - and it the container will last long! We will be finishing our fence with this stain! Highly recommend!

Easy to use, looks great!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My fake owl, Oscar, needed his ugly pole stained. We brushed it on with a sponge brush and used an old towel to rub it in for a lived in look. It turned out so good and I have a ton leftover for another project. It was very easy to use and didn't have an overwhelming odor.
