*Is Topcoat Required Between Gel Stain and Water Based Glaze Effects?

Gel Stains (Oil Based) Glaze Effects Water Based Topcoats Technique Tips

Yes - this is not a good place to take shortcuts. GF Gel Stain gets its deep rich hue from a large number of colorants. Seal the stain with a topcoat before applying glaze to prevent "color pull."

The glaze will also glide more easily over the surface after topcoat is applied, allowing you greater control of how much color you want to use. Be sure to wait 72 hours when applying water-based finishes over oil-based finishes.
