The MINWAX COMPANY THE 71097 is a Weathered Oak interior wood finish designed to stain and seal bare wood in a single step. This gallon-size formula meets 250 VOC compliant standards, making it suitable for use in VOC-restricted regions across multiple states.

Installation Notes

Allow adequate dry time between coats as directed on the product label. Ensure the work area is properly ventilated during application and drying.
