Gel Stain & Top Coat

Gel Stain & Top Coat

Our brush-on Gel Stain and Topcoat is a one-step finish, excellent for surfaces in rough shape to hide imperfections with minimal prep work required. Adds colour and protection in one step. This is a pigmented topcoat.

It is NOT a wipe-on, wipe-off product like our SFO, which is a penetrating stain with a topcoat built in.

Use a natural bristle brush or a roller to apply. Dries to the touch in approximately 4 hours and can be re-coated at that time (always test for tackiness before recoating, if still tacky, wait another couple of hours and reassess).

This product has a thicker gel-like consistency – each colour varies. When stirred, it becomes less viscous. It has a long open time and is a self-levelling product.
One Coat looks like a stain. Subsequent coats become more opaque, except for Patina, which will remain transparent as it contains no pigment.

Gel Stain and Topcoat dries to a matte finish.

Available in a 1-quart size, this is great for most medium to large-sized projects. 

This product is ideal for all types of surfaces, scratched, uneven, unstable due to chipping, as with milk-painted surfaces, melamine, laminate, pre-painted or stained wood surfaces. It’s so versatile!

Greystone – Lightly pigmented, this translucent warm grey is reminiscent of stone. 

Black  - Lightly pigmented Gel Stain and Topcoat is a translucent black.

Double Espresso – This coffee brown Gel Stain and Topcoat is the darkest and heavily pigmented.  For those projects that need more of a cover-up, it is easy to achieve a rich and almost opaque finish with 2 coats. 

Patina – Our “Clear” Gel Stain and Topcoat is a very durable finish that has a transparent amber yellowish tone. 

The Patina is translucent while Black, Greystone and Double Espresso are considered semi-transparent. Multiple coats will create a more opaque finish, but the sheen will remain matte. Keep in mind your substrate colour will always show through. However, with the exception of Patina, the more coats you apply, the more opaque it will become.
