Littlefair's Wood Stain Water-Based - (Black Ebony) – Non-Toxic, Eco-Friendly & Quick Drying - Easy-to-Apply, Concentrated Formula for All Wood Types – 500ml

Amazing dye. Leaves the grains visible and the colour is sublime. Very easy to apply and is also idiot proof so don’t worry about not getting even spread, it dries all evenly. Best applying using a brush rather than sponge. Definitely purchasing more.

Why did you choose this product over others?:Really impressed with this stain! It brought out the grain beautifully and dried quickly with very little smell. Easy to clean up and perfect for indoor projects. I used “Medium Oak” on pine l, the color was rich and even. Best results with a foam applicator. Will definitely use again!

This was puchased to stain a new cap to go on a newel post, when new cap turned up nowhere near the colour advertised online. Antique pine seemed to be closest shade to what was needed to coordinate with other elements in the surrounding area.First time we have used this or any wood stain. Our first impressions was it arrived intact, plastic bottle and in a plastic bag with no leakage. Instructions very small so either need a magnifier or photo and enlarge the writing as micro dot!We thought the wood stain would be thicker than what it was, it is water-based and the product is of a water-consistency so would described as a dye. Having prepped the wood as per instructions we chose a brush to put on the stain. However, the stain was so runny and because of the shape of the cap, the stain from the brush was running down the edges in dark dribbles and onto the newspaper. Thought that using a cloth would work better and less messy.Coverage was good by cloth for this small item. Finish of item meant that 2 of the 4 sides absorbed the stain differently and unevenly, not the problem of the stain product itself but the wood. Left to dry and 2 sides of cap patchy so re-did them and felt best to give all other areas a light second coat. Resulted in a lovely golden antique look. 2 sides are still darker than rest due to quality/cut of wood, but will be less noticeable when a light coating of varnish is added for that final protection.Can't fault the product, will be happy with the end result with a coat of varnish. However, with hindsight, it may have been easier to do the colouring with an all-in-one wood colouring-come-varnish than a separate stain. For large areas of wood to permanently change colouring this product will be perfect. For small jobs this bottle will last for a very long time a a little goes a long way.If using a cloth do wear gloves as though waterbased it does still take a little while to remove the tinge of the stain from fingers!

Great value good quality true to size and colour, easy to apply good coverage

I ordered medium oak, a little goes a long way,good coverage, I used a sponge to apply, great product, lovely colour, dries quickly, would recommend.

This colour is not what is advertised, looks like the Driftwood Grey wood stain they advertised, was put straight over wood that had an orange tint to it.I used this and applied 2 coats as the first came out a little streaky, (used a paintbrush). I applied this colour straight over white, and also the cabinet was rubbed down etc before hand.Not true to the colour advertised, but all in all I like the colour and will stick with it.

I bought a couple of stains for some panelling as I wanted something dark and rustic looking but wasn’t sure which shade to go for. The English Oak was the perfect shade for me and was super easy to apply and quick to dry. It was my first time staining wood and a really positive experience.

I think this is the best wood stain I’ve ever used, and I used a lot! It’s super forgiving, like other reviews said… other stains they barely give you w chance to distribute the product over a whole surface evenly, which for larger pieces is always a problem to blend the sections, but not this one . The Antique pine which I put on pine planks sitting on top of my kitchen banquette benches was almost a perfect match to the tone of the oak table , chairs and island worktop. Absolutely chuffed , as I just couldn’t find anything that would match and I also only did one layer - it’s super efficient too! Well done ! A great product
