How far will a half-pint cover, and what affects coverage?

Accepted Answer

One half-pint can cover up to approximately 70 square feet, depending on surface porosity, texture, and application method. Rough or very porous woods may require more product for even color distribution.

Prep the surface, stir the stain before use, test on a scrap piece or hidden area, apply in the direction of the wood grain with even strokes, and wipe or blend as needed to achieve your desired depth. Allow to dry per the 1-hour touch-dry time before topcoating if desired.

Question 7

What safety and prep considerations should I know before staining?

Accepted Answer

Work in a well-ventilated area, keep away from open flames, wear gloves and eye protection, and follow manufacturer instructions for stirring and applying. Oil-based stains can emit fumes, so good ventilation is important during application and drying.

Question 8
