FAQs
常见问题
WHAT IS MINWAX DESIGN SERIES WOOD EFFECTS?
It is a Water Based Wood Stain that accelerates the look of aged wood in minutes. Unlike the other Water Based products: Clear and White Tint Bases, the wood effects stains do not require tinting and is ready to use right out of the can. This stain works best with bare or stripped wood by reacting with the woods’ tannins, creating unique looks every time. As the stain dries, the effect develops.
HOW DO I APPLY MINWAX DESIGN SERIES WOOD EFFECTS?
For best results, we recommend using a foam brush applicator. Apply product in direction of the wood grain and let it dry. Unlike other stains, there is no need to wipe away excess Wood Effect stain.
DOES MINWAX DESIGN SERIES WOOD EFFECTS REQUIRE A TOP COAT?
For a rustic & aged look that will continue to patina with time, a top coat is not required. If you prefer increased durability and protection while maintaining the rustic and aged look, we recommend Minwax® Polycrylic® Protective Finish.
SHOULD MINWAX® DESIGN SERIES WOOD EFFECTS BE USED ON FLOORS?
No. Water-based stains dry very quickly, making them difficult to apply evenly over large surfaces. For very large areas such as floors, we recommend an oil-based product such as Minwax® Wood Finish™ stain.
