More Reasons to Love This Product

IT'S A WATER-BASED PRODUCT THAT WORKS.

There has been a history of failed water-based products over the past 20 years. General Finishes is an industry expert and has worked relentlessly for three decades to create water-based finishes that perform, giving you an equal or better solution for you and your customer's projects

PROVIDES BRILLIANT WOOD TONES OF ANY STAIN.

No one does color than GF. For superior results and performance, we use the highest-quality resins, binders and additives. Our objective is not to compete with box-store commodity finish pricing, but to provide finishes that perform and satisfy your customers needs.

WORKS LIKE OIL-BASED STAINS, BUT WITHOUT THE HEADACHE

GF Water Based Wood Stains provide a similar workability like oil-based stains, but without the awful, pungent smell. The learning curve is minor when transitioning from oil to water is minor, and your customers will appreciate working with nonflammable products.

PLENTY OF CUSTOMER SUPPORT

General Finishes is one call away. When you call the factory during business hours, you will talk to a human immediately and will have direct communication with your regional sales rep. We offer in-person training and online resources such as how-to videos, FAQs and more are available.

We did a stain test for a customer who wanted a dark stain like Espresso. The problem was he was doing it on maple, so we suggested using GF Water Based Wood Stain. We did a sample for him on some scrap wood he brought in. He loved it—so much color compared to an oil stain. Plus, less smell and faster dry time.
