Minwax Company, the 66010 Chestnut Gel Stain 1 Quart

Product Description

The MINWAX COMPANY, THE 66010 is a thick-bodied gel stain formulated for wiping application on wood surfaces. Its heavy consistency resists dripping and running, making it well-suited for vertical surfaces, end grain, and difficult-to-stain woods that tend to blotch with conventional liquid stains. The gel formula allows for extended working time, giving the applicator more control over color depth and uniformity. This product comes in a Chestnut color and is packaged in a one-quart container. It is typically applied by finishing contractors, cabinetmakers, and woodworking tradespeople who require consistent, controllable color penetration.

This gel stain is used in residential and commercial finishing applications where uniform color is critical. It performs well on interior wood surfaces including cabinets, furniture, doors, and trim. The thick body is especially useful on woods such as pine, maple, and birch that are prone to uneven absorption. It is also effective on fiberglass and metal surfaces where a wood-tone appearance is desired. Each case contains 4 units.
