WHITE General Finishes Gel Wood Stain GALLON (oil based)

Gel Stain from General Finishes is home of the popular Java Gel Stain featured across the nation's social media for upcycling furniture and cabinets. Gel wood stains are heavy-bodied and do not penetrate as deeply into the wood as liquid oil-based wipe-on stains do, providing the deepest, richest colors of any oil-based stain available.   All raw wood projects require preparation sanding before applying General Finishes Prairie Wheat gel stain, and all existing finishes require prep cleaning and sanding. If you skip this critical step, your finish may fail.
