Gel Stain

Gel StainĀ from General Finishes is home of the popular Java Gel Stain featured across the nation's social media for upcycling furniture and cabinets. Gel wood stains are heavy-bodied and do not penetrate as deeply into the wood as liquid oil-based wipe-on stains do, providing the deepest, richest colors of any oil-based stain available.

Anchors away! Loving this masculine bathroom vanity by Fish River Furnishings! Restyled with Linen Milk Paint, Java Gel Stain, and Van Dyke Brown Glaze, with gorgeous hand-painted details. Fish River Furnishings will be opening a new, larger location on Highway 59 in Robertsdale, AL in June. How exciting!

Here's a dramatic before and after table transformation by Number Fifty-Three. This table got the full General Finishes treatment.
