Posted: 6/9/2010
Refinishing wood is easier and
simpler with the latest low VOC,
water-based products.(NAPSA) - If you think staining
and finishing a piece of wood furniture
is a messy, smelly job, you
might be surprised by just how far
wood stain choices have come. With
the growth of water-based stain formulations,
do-it-yourselfers are creating
beautiful wood finishes while
enjoying fast drying times, low odor
and easy soap-and-water cleanup.
Companies are also making it
easier than ever to achieve a beautiful
wood finish by making products
for the entire job. Minwax®, for
example, has a Water Based Wood
Stains line in a low VOC (volatile
organic compounds) formulation and
an updated color palette. The line
features 50 beautiful stain colors,
ranging from traditional wood tones
such as English Oak and Colonial
Pine to contemporary colors like
Deep Ocean and China Red. Start
the project with a water- based, prestain
wood conditioner and complete
it with a water-based, protective
clear finish, such as Minwax
Polycrylic Protective Finish.
Even beginners will be pleasantly
surprised at how simple it is
to precondition the wood, apply
the wood stain and preserve the
beauty with a long-lasting, waterbased
protective finish. |
