Minwax 402140000 Wood Effects, Weathered Gray, 1 Quart

I like the way my mailbox post looks. This is quite dark, but you can still see some wood grain plus I imagine it’ll fade with time (tho it’s fine with me if it doesn’t). It was super easy to paint on and looks great.

Very easy to use and instructions are clear. Goes on smooth and dries nicely. Color seemed to be durable and hold up well over 3 years now. Slight streaks but probably because of improper applying on my part.

This is the first time I have used this product. My intention was to "age" some pallet wood for an art project as shown in the photo above. I don't know for sure how this product works, but I am guessing that it is some kind of mild acid or salt solution. I used three coats and applied as directed. It goes on easily, but is the same as painting with water so be careful because you will have a lot of overflow unless you can control it by doing your project on a workbench, which I did. My "creative" idea was to make this wood look like driftwood. I decided to dust on some raw azure pigment that I had around my shop and then I finished and sealed it with diluted polyurathane. Although I did not achieve exactly the effect that I wanted, with some expermenting my project was 75% successful.

I got this stain so I could restore an old wooden wardrobe. I was looking for a very dark stain, and color was much lighter than expected after the first couple of coats. After the 4th or 5th coat I was able to get the desired darkness. I used foam brushes to apply the stain and they worked very well. They spread the stain with ease and allowed for a nice even coat.

Very easy to apply. Used it on rough sawn cedar. Part of the project had the cedar sanded smooth and part of it had rough texture. It worked well on both surfaces and gave an overall uniformed look. The only problem was unnoticed glue spots from the assembled project. Careful removal of the spots to bare wood and reapplying the finish on only these spots allowed the finish to reach the bare wood and react to produce the correct look. This was the grey weathered wood effects

When I first got it, it was completely separated. A whole lot of shaking and stirring is required. Then after all that is fairly covered anything multiple coats were needed up to 5 to 6, and I still don’t think it really came out right

Easiest product to use and great color tones. Almost too sheer s it took several coats to get dark enough but dried even and beautiful!

B-E-A-UTIFUL! Two coats, no sanding... Came out better than expected.

No lo recomiendo parece pintura de acuarela la regrese y la paquetería lo perdió y nunk me regresaron mi dinero
