There is something special about wooden furniture and features at home. Wood transcends time, style and even budget, but it needs care in order to keep doing its magic both indoors and outdoors.
Staining any wooden surface such as doors, window frames, claddings, tables, antique wall clocks and even statement timber walls, will protect and enhance the natural beauty of the wood, but it can be a little daunting. With just a bit of prep and a few easy application steps, you will soon be enjoying a stunning new look and feel, but even pros get a little nervous before dipping the paintbrush into the varnish.
Even though it is impossible to predict the final aesthetic without testing the stain on the specific wood type you want to refresh, you should remember that wood is very flexible and even if you make a mistake, it is probably reversible. Of course, it is always best to do everything in our power to get the most professional-looking result possible, as easily (and as mistake-free) as possible and to achieve that we suggest using a high quality water-based woodstain such as AQUAXYL VARNISH by VIVECHROM.
