Wow - 3rd time is a charm - new favorite
Size: 1 Pint
Color: Hickory
This is my 3rd product to attempt to stain some oak trim. First crack was gel stain, then a water-based dye, then this, water based wood stain. The gel stain was uneven, the dye weak, this stuff? Spectacular. I did a side-by-side test and this shone immediately. Goes on quickly a quick wipe and it was brilliantly easy to apply a nice even-colored coat. Blew me away. I did short, 24" sections before wiping and found it was easy to blend. Love this stuff.

Very Forgiving
Size: 1 Gallon
Color: Hickory
I used this product on my oak floor, which needed to be stained, because it was very badly marked up. This was my first ever floor refinishing project, so I had no prior experience to draw from, and no idea what to expect. But, I found this stain to be very easy to work with. I found it's best if you thin it with water. 3 parts stain to one part water worked very well. It just keeps it wet longer, so it doesn't dry so fast while you're working with it. I did one entire coat, and then two partial coats, which were mainly to fill in areas where I didn't get enough stain the first time. I just sat on the floor, and applied it with a sponge brush, and then wiped with a lint free rag. If you have lap marks, or you accidentally apply it too thick somewhere, it's very easy to sand off, so it's a good product for amateurs like me who goof up a lot. There was also no odor, and I was extremely happy with the result.

It works, but not at all like oil stain
Size: 1 Pint
Color: Hickory
(Pardon the experimental nature of the piece in the photos. I was learning as I was going, applying too much, too little, just right, sanding it back, reapplying, etc.) First of all, you have to be very careful with how you apply it. You either have to leave a puddle of the stuff on top of the wood, let a little of it soak in for a few seconds, and wipe the excess off (DO NOT rub it / work it in), or you just barely get your applicator wet, and only apply a very light coat so that there is no excess in the first place. If you do anything else, you will end up with too much finish on the surface, and it'll just look like dark paint. Using pre-stain conditioner barely made any difference (though interestingly, some bits that had a thin layer of wood glue actually stained kinda nicely). Second, once you do figure out how to apply it correctly, you'll soon realize that it still doesn't look right. Of course, looks are subjective, but if you're expecting it to look like wood that's been stained with oil, then you're in for a surprise. The way it reacts with the features in the wood is pretty poor (IMHO), some grain gets really dark, to the point that it looks artificial, and while it can play nicely with knots & such, because they're uneven they can catch excess stain, effectively filling in & painting over these features. Hindsight being 20/20, I should've seen this coming, as I think a lot of furniture uses water-based stain now (for all the same reasons I wanted to use it), but it never really looks like older, oil-stained furniture. I'm sure this is exactly what someone is looking for, but for me it's pretty disappointing.

First can not true to color
Size: 1 Quart
Color: Hickory
I have really liked other General Finishes products and found their water based stains and sealants very easy to apply. So I was surprised that the color of the Hickory stain did not resemble the can or what I had seen on the internet. I did stir the can vigorously. The color was a much darker brown and less orange than portrayed. I am getting a replacement so hopefully that will work out. I was planning to use it on a set of shelves.
