Oil Base Gel Stain, 1 Pint, Java

Q: Can this be used on cabinets that have been painted?

I actually sale the General Finishes line at our stores. I absolutely love this product. Yes you can use this over painted cabinets. However, I suggest sanding to ensure that there’s no paint that might be lifting bc if so then it could cause the General Finishes not to adhere properly.

Q: How far does the stain go?

I want to change the color to a darker color of a red oak stair case that Is stained red mahogany what should I use

Q: Can I use this on laminate .

Yes! I used it on an oak bathroom vanity with laminate sides. It covered it with no problems. It takes 2-3 coats depending on how dark you want it and I finished it with GF arm-r-seal. That was more than 5 years ago and it still looks the same.

Q: Whats the best way to prep the surface before applying the stain?

Depends on many factors. Bare wood light sand, wipe clean , stain . Previously stained and sealed, scuff or light sand and wipe down with mineral spirits, wait couple hours to be safe and stain
