Old Masters Professional Semi-Transparent Satin Maple Oil-Based Alkyd Fast Dry Wood Stain 1 qt

Bring out the natural beauty of interior wood with the Old Masters Professional Semi-Transparent Satin Maple Oil-Based Alkyd Fast Dry Wood Stain, packed in a convenient 1 qt container. This fast-drying, oil-based stain is engineered for professionals who want a warmer maple tone without hiding the grain, along with dependable performance in everyday projects.

• Semi-transparent Maple tone enhances and enriches the wood grain while delivering a warm, yellow-toned finish that feels timeless and refined.
• Oil-based alkyd formula provides durable protection and rich color depth for interior surfaces like cabinetry, trim, furniture, and paneling. Not intended for exterior UV exposure, but excellent for indoor applications.
• Fast-drying, efficient workflow with a recoating window around 2 hours—great for multi-coat finishes and time-sensitive projects.
• Versatile application options—brush, spray, or wipe to control color intensity and finish. Tintable to dial in the exact maple shade you need.
• Good coverage and finish—approximately 125 square feet per quart, depending on wood porosity. Satin sheen delivers a soft, low-luster look that’s easy to maintain.
• Professional-grade versatility—designed for indoor surfaces where a quality, grain-friendly stain is essential, and compatible with a clear topcoat if additional protection is desired.

Ideal for maple- or maple-toned interiors, this stain shines on furniture, doors, trim, and cabinetry where you want a sophisticated, grain-forward appearance. The key is controlling color depth with thin, even coats and allowing proper drying time between applications. Because it’s not UV resistant, pair it with indoor-use planning and consider finishing with a compatible topcoat that suits high-traffic areas.

Quick-start application guide:

1. Prepare surfaces with a smooth sand to 180–220 grit and remove all dust.
2. Stir thoroughly and test on scrap wood to preview color and consistency.
3. Apply in thin, even coats using your preferred method (brush, spray, or wipe).
4. Wipe away excess and maintain a wet edge to avoid lap marks.
5. Allow approximately 2 hours before applying a second coat; add more coats for deeper color.
6. Finish with a compatible topcoat if you need enhanced durability or easier cleanup.
