Refinished with Nutmeg Gel Stain by General Finishes. Woodworkers love the lustrous finish that emerges when rubbing out the 2nd and 3rd coats. Gel Stains are formulated to produce a durable & beautiful "hand-rubbed" finish and are heavy-bodied, so they do not penetrate as deeply as liquid oilbase stains. Because of this, they are often less affected by the condition of the wood and can help acheive a more even appearance on difficult woods. Available at Rockler & Woodcraft Woodworking Stores, or use the store locator to buy in the U.S., U.K and Canada.
