Armstrong-Clark "Amber" Hardwood Stain

Armstrong-Clark oil base wood stains utilize a combination of drying and non-drying oils that give the user two layers of protection with one brush stroke. Armstrong-Clark stains have non-drying conditioning oils that separate from the drying side of the formula. These oils penetrate into the wood fiber where the wood's natural oils used to be and rejuvenates the wood. The drying oils stay at the surface, lock in the conditioning oils, and create a barrier that is dry to the touch as they lock out the harmful effects of Mother Nature.

Highest quality pigments provide enhanced transparency and UV protection over semi-transparents. These colors are transparent on hardwoods and semi-transparent on softwoods.

  • For hardwoods (like ipe) and softwoods
  • Transparent colors
  • 1 sparingly thin coat for hardwoods
  • Stain pad recommended for hardwood applications; roller application not recommended for hardwoods
  • For softwoods a second coat can be applied for extra protection if the 1st coat soaks into the wood within 60 minutes
  • For furniture and sitting surface applications apply one coat and wipe stain off after one hour to prevent rub-off
