SamaN 1gal Black Water-Based Stain

SamaN Water-Based Stains deliver beautiful, even color for indoor wood surfaces in just a single coat. Ideal for furniture, cabinets, doors, moldings, and decorative woodworks, this easy-to-use wiping stain glides on smoothly and dries quickly without raising the wood grain or leaving lap marks. Designed for bare wood, plywood, OSB, and even primed surfaces, it creates a clean, consistent finish that’s forgiving of application mistakes thanks to its reactivation technology. Whether you're a DIY beginner or a seasoned craftsman, you’ll appreciate how fast and foolproof the process is—no need for a pre-stain conditioner and no risk of overlapping lines.

Simply shake the bottle, apply with a sponge, and wipe off the excess with a cloth, working in small sections to prevent drying before blending. For complex or large surfaces like doors or panels, you can add a drying retarder to increase open time. The stain dries in about 30 minutes to 1 hour, though waiting 24 hours before applying a protective top coat is recommended for best results. Keep in mind that a top coat is required to lock in color and protect against moisture. Cleanup is easy with warm water and mild soap. This low-odor, highly pigmented stain is compatible with all types of clear finishes and designed to bring out the beauty of wood without the hassle.
