Prepare interior wood for staining with Minwax Pre-Stain Wood Conditioner. The oil-based formula penetrates the wood grain before stain is applied. It promotes uniform acceptance of compatible oil-based wood stains. The conditioner helps prevent streaking and blotching during the staining process. It also helps produce a more even stain appearance. The formula can be used on soft or hard wood surfaces. It is especially useful for porous woods such as pine, alder, birch, and maple. The conditioner dries in approximately 15 minutes under specified conditions. Apply the formula with a brush or cloth before staining. Minwax Pre-Stain Wood Conditioner helps prepare wood surfaces by evening out the absorption of oil-based stain.

Essential for Antique flooring

2 years ago
I frequently sand, stain, and refinish antique pine in historic Massachusetts. Minwax Pre-Stain is essential to creating an even color and I’ve completed over 4,000 square feet of projects dating back to the 1620’s with a 100% success rate.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Don’t Skip This Step!

2 years ago
I love to refinish furniture, and get so excited when I get to sand a piece down to bare wood and apply a fresh new stain! A lot of people skip a super important step…Pre-stain Wood Conditioner! I spoken with people who have skipped this step and their unfortunately their piece turned out blotchy and uneven. I always use Minwax Pre-stain Wood Conditioner and am always happy with the even stain absorption and beautiful results! No blotchiness here!!!

Yes, I recommend this product.
