Varathane Premium Wood Conditioner is a high solids, soya oil-based wood conditioner designed to penetrate deeply into wood to provide a deeper and richer color tone and superior penetration for all wood projects. This Pre-Stain Wood Conditioner prepares soft woods for more even colour. Pine, fir, alder, birch and other soft woods have uneven grain structure, which may cause uneven, blotchy colour without proper conditioning. This Pre-Stain Wood Conditioner is formulated to seal the deeper pores of the wood, allowing the stain to penetrate evenly. Use on wood furniture, cabinets, doors and trim, floors and paneling. Prep soft or porous woods for a stunning stain job with Rust-Oleum Varathane Premium Wood Conditioner. For Interior Use only. Works well under any oil-based stain.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Works great on Pine and Spruce I use this on all of my SPF projects before staining. Works great. I apply a liberal coat without pooling, and wait about half an hour. Smells very chemical-ly but the smell dissipates pretty quick once dry. Definitely recommend.

How strong is its smell? and for how long does it stay?

Asked by: Hicham
The Varathane Wood Conditioner is oil-based, and has a solvent smell. The smell will not linger long, and should dissipate soon after the product has dried.

Would this be good to use on Maple?

Asked by: Adam
Hi Adam, Yes, our oil based Pre-Stain Wood Conditioner can be used on Maple. We recommend not allowing the conditioner to dry. Apply the stain right after wiping off the excess conditioner.

What will happen if this is used for exterior?

Asked by: woodlove
Hi woodlove, When our Oil-Based Pre-Stain Wood Conditioner is applied on exterior surfaces, it will crack and peel from the exposure to moisture.

The product description on the HD website said it's good for both oil- and water-based stains while the container says it is NOT RECOMMENDED for water-based stains. What should I do if I want to use a water-based stain after applying this conditioner?

Asked by: Shak
Hi Shak, The label is correct and our Oil-Based Pre-Stain Wood Conditioner is not recommended for use with water-based stains. We recommend getting our Varathane Water-Based Pre-Stain Wood Conditioner instead as it works under water based stains. We hope this new information is helpful.
