Review on SamaN Interior Water Based Wood Stain - Natural Stain For Furniture, Moldings, Wood Paneling & Cabinets (Black TEW-108-12, 12 Oz) by Brian Quenzer

This stain absorbed into the wood, plastic wood, and silicone wood filler evenly. It definitely holds true to not raising the wood grain. I selected the BRANDY color; it was slightly a more red tint than I had anticipated but I am loving it. This factor is due to the base wood from the start and the amount of stain I applied. After application, I followed with 2 coats of shellac. This is a high traffic area by a back door. As long as bleach and ammonia products (i.e. Windex) are not used or applied to the coating it should retain its luster. (shellac and ammonia products=not good) This appears to be a worthy stain. Easy clean up. Non-toxic.
