Works great regardless of wood type

I didn't know if my wood was hard or soft so I applied this preconditioned as a safety measure. It works great. After using the preconditioned the stain went on flawlessly. My table looks brand new.

Use on every wood stain project. Plan your work.

I make cabinets and use Minwax oil based stain on them. I use the conditioner on every project. Follow the directions and wipe off all excess within 15 minutes and stain with 2 hours and results are great. Plan your work so you can do this within the time frame required. If you attempt to do too much staining within 15 minutes of application you will get poor results. Follow directions and get good results.

How to use it properly.

I purchased this and tested it on some pine. I had some blotchy results initially when I tried to stain soon after I wiped off the excess. Best to let it dry a good hour or so then apply the stain and it will be perfect. You need to let the conditioner fully dry otherwise it hasn't created the proper seal below the surface.
