Its thick formula ensures even color application without drips or runs, especially on difficult woods such as pine and aspen. Easy to apply with a foam brush or cloth, it offers a glossy, hand-rubbed finish with quick re-coat times and optional sanding, making it the go-to choice for professionals seeking fast, flawless results. ## Description These oil-based Gel Topcoats and Stains are quite possibly the easiest of all finishes to use and achieve a "hand-rubbed" look without all the work. Application is easy with a foam brush or lint free cloth. The heavy bodied gel formulation permits the product to flow out evenly (no drips or runs) preventing uneven penetration for consistent color control. Combined with no sanding (your choice to sand or not) between coats and a quick “re-coat” time, you’ll be finished sooner with less effort and better results than ever before. ## Features - This is the stain that has the most "finishing feel" of all General Finishes' products - Woodworkers love the lustrous finish that shows up - Heavy-bodied, and so does not penetrate as deeply into the wood as liquid oil-base stains do - Can help you get a more even appearance on difficult woods such as aspen or pine - Easy-to-use stains simply wipe on with a cloth or applied with a foam brush (no spills or splashes) ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Colour | Ash Gray | | Brand | General Finishes | | Surface Recommendation | Wood | | Material | Gel | | Model Name | B653-UL 1/2 Pint | | Size | 1 Half-Pint | | Coating Description | Oil Based | | Item dimensions L x W x H | 7.3 x 7.3 x 7.6 Centimeters | | Item Weight | 281 g | | Finish Type | Glossy | | Style | Wood Stain | | Recommended Uses For Product | Interior, Cabinets, Furniture | | Special Feature | Easy-to-use Gel Formula with Consistent Color Control | | Liquid Volume | 0.5 Pints | | Paint Type | Oil | | Package Information | Jar | | Number of Items | 1 | | Manufacturer | General Finishes | | Net Quantity | 8 Fluid Ounces | | UPC | 606016120000 | | Country of Origin | USA | | Item model number | B653-UL 1/2 Pint | | Product Dimensions | 7.3 x 7.3 x 7.62 cm; 281.23 g | | ASIN | B07R7XR4CH | ## Product Details - **Colour:** Ash Gray - **Brand:** General Finishes - **Surface Recommendation:** Wood - **Material:** Gel - **Model Name:** B653-UL 1/2 Pint ## Images ![Oil Base Gel Stain, 1/2 Pint, Ash Gray - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81997EXNhjL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Colour, Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Can this be used on cabinets that have been painted?** A: I actually sale the General Finishes line at our stores.
