Oil Based Woodstain

Description

When it comes to wooden surfaces, you aren’t limited to just paint. Our oil-based woodstain is a great alternative to exterior wood paint, and it can be used inside too!  

Available in 1 litre tins to 205 litre barrels, our wood stain is perfect for all projects, no matter the size. When you can order large quantities of your stain or paint, you can tackle the biggest projects or keep plenty spare for the next job. It’s one of the many reasons why we’re the go-to provider of paint and painting accessories for tradespeople.  

The Benefits of Wood Stain over Wood Paint 

So why choose wood stain? Well, one of the best parts about wooden surfaces is the natural wood grain that gives it a unique texture. Painting wood can ruin this texture, making the surface appear plasticky or look fake from a distance. Although we stock many different wood paints and varnishes that keep this texture, wood stain does it best.  

Because our oil-based woodstain is semi-transparent, the natural look of the wood isn’t hidden, and is in fact enhanced after a layer or two. This creates a richer and more eye-catching tone for your wooden surface.  

We only include the best ingredients into our wood stain compound, further improving the overall colour and sheen it provides.  

However, this is far from the most important benefit: 

Is Wood Stain more Durable than Paint? 

In some cases, yes, it is, and only the toughest oil-based wood paints can match the toughness of our wood stains.  

Because of the oil-based compound, our wood stain can be used internally or externally to provide long-term protection from all kinds of damage. The oil naturally repels water, which if allowed to seep into the surface can cause mot and mould, damaging your wood surfaces beyond repair from the inside. Water-based paints still prevent this, but don’t suffer standing water nearly as well.  

Designed to withstand the rigors of outdoor exposure, this wood stain provides durable protection against moisture, UV rays, and other environmental factors. It forms a protective barrier that helps to prevent warping, cracking, and rotting, ensuring the longevity of your wood surfaces. 

Many people avoid oil-based paints because of the strong odours and potentially harmful VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds) they contain. It’s true that not all oil-based paints and stains are good for the environment, but at Paintmaster we care about our impact, and ensure that all our compounds are created to be as safe as possible.  

Therefore our oil-based wood stain is safe for plants and pets, so it won’t cause any harm. But if you’re using this woodstain inside your home, there are some precautions you should take. 

Can you use Wood Stain Inside? 

Our oil-based wood stain can be used on interior surfaces too. If you want to enhance the look of your furniture, kitchen cupboards, or worktops but aren’t a fan of how paint looks, the translucency of our wood stain is perfect, and it’ll protect the surfaces from stains, scuffs, scratches, and general wear and tear.  

You can use wood stain on your floors too, creating a tough layer of protection that years of foot and paw traffic won’t get through.  

One thing to remember is that, as is the case with all oil-based paints, ventilation is very important. If you’re using our wood stain inside, ensure there are plenty of open windows and doors nearby, so that the fumes can dissipate and the odour won’t linger longer than it should.  

Best Colours for Wood Stain 

Unlike our wood paints, this oil-based woodstain is not part of our colour system. Because of its compound, colour options are limited, but the 3 available options will still look fantastic. These are: 

Dark Brown – A classic choice for wood surfaces as it makes it look richer. Ideal for fences, sheds, decking, and more.  

Dark Green – If you want a more natural look for your outdoor areas, dark green blends well with plants and grass, so they can remain the centrepieces of your garden.  

Clear – For those who want to improve the longevity of their wood surfaces without changing how they look, clear woodstain provides all the necessary protection but the wood looks unpainted.  

 

No matter which you choose, our oil-based wood stain is easy to apply with paintbrushes, cloths, sprayers, or rollers, so even beginners can get the best results.
