Retique It Wood'nStain - Liquid Wood Gel Stain Interior/Exterior (128 oz (Gallon), Java)

I am truly shocked at the results! I thought this sounded too good to be true. I read the reviews, and really wrestled with trying this product. I started out with a really shiny table that was 2 shades. I wanted it darker to match the antique chairs that I purchased. I put 1 coat and followed the pattern in the table. It looked great! I put 2 coats on the lighter shaded leaf. There were a few places where the finish was gone, bare wood. I went over those again and blended the brush strokes. It looks like a new table. I ordered the Retique It Poly acrylic to put over the new finish. I hope it works as well as this.

I wanted to love this stain like I love the other wood prime by retique it but it was so light. I needed up ising a different brand to achieve the color I wanted

Love this product. I have used it on several pieces of furniture

For almost $25 an 8 oz jar, this product better deliver. Unfortunately, it did not. First, I'm pretty sure I received an already-returned jar, as the plastic sealed cover under the lid was already ripped off. Second, after shaking VERY well, there were a LOT of lumps! I'm assuming these are the wood fibers, maybe clumped up. I don't know. Either way, not acceptable. I tried to use the product, swiping until the lumps were gone. It turned out ok, but nothing special. I am almost certain I could of obtained the same results with a sample-size can of flat, brown paint. My last complaint: why aren't there directions on the jar?!?! So odd. It tells you to go to "retique.tv" for instructional videos. Sure, if that link worked. Just put instructions on the jar. I'll even write them for the company: Swipe until all the billions of lumps dissolve, or your hand and arm fall off, whichever comes first.

Completely transformed our bedroom furniture. I did three coats. I only added poly to the top of the dresser and left the rest a matte finish. We love the updated look! Easy clean up. Almost no Oder.

Really easy. 1 step for a huge improvement to my concrete fireplace.

Once you open this product and put on your first coat, you have to put the 2nd coat on within with 1-2 days after which the stain and wood particles separate. When this happens you brush little pieces of the wood/stain on your furniture and then after it dries you have to try and sand the particles off. There is no way you can keep the liquid wood and stain longer than 1 week before it completely deteriorates.

This product did not work for me. I ended up having to repaint my cabinets. I contacted the company though and they refunded me with not trouble at all - very professional customer service.
