I am doing that right now. It says on the can that it can be applied over an oil based stain...but the stain may continue to "amber" under the coating. I decided to go with the polyacrylic because a friend told me that polyurethane yellows over time. I don't know if that is true...but that is what I decided to do. So far, the acrylic is going over and drying over the oil based stain without any problems.
Use a roller or staining pad to apply the oil or water-based semi-transparent stain. Go in the direction of the grain and do not allow the stain to puddle.
First, remove the old finish by sanding or using chemical strippers. Next, use a grain filler that either contrasts with the natural color of the table or the color you intend to stain the table. Next, select a stain and apply it to the table. Finally, select a top-coating like water-based polyurethane and apply a coat.
Try using oxalic acid, also called wood bleach, on the water damaged area before attempting to stain the wood. If that removes the stain, sand the surface, use a wood conditioner or a clear stain as a first coat, then apply the colored stain. Once that's dry, apply a clear polyurethane for interior use, or a spar varnish for exterior use.
You should check the label on the specific product you're planning to use. If the label states it will adhere to wood with an existing coating, then it's fine to use even over an oil-based stain. (This is because once thoroughly dried, oil-based stains behave the same as water-based stains.) Some products, however, will require the existing stain to be stripped from the wood, or to apply a primer coat over the existing finish before applying new stain.
Lute is an synthetic oil based finish having a semi smooth and mid sheen level. plastic paint is a water based emulsion coating that is normally Matt in appearance. Lustre has a very high washablity, stain resistance and life. Plastic is water based, so limited washabililty.... but it is more environment friendly and easy to apply.
No, you cannot apply an oil stain over a water-based finish because the two types of finishes are not compatible and may not adhere properly to each other.
No, it is not recommended to apply water-based stain over oil-based stain as the two types of stains are not compatible and may not adhere properly. It is best to stick with the same type of stain for a consistent and successful finish.
Yes, you can apply water-based polyurethane over oil-based stain, but it is recommended to allow the stain to fully cure before applying the polyurethane to ensure proper adhesion and finish.
No, it is not recommended to apply an oil-based stain over a water-based stain as the two types of stains may not adhere properly to each other, leading to potential issues with the finish. It is best to stick to one type of stain for a consistent and durable result.
No, you should not apply a water-based sealer over an oil-based stain. The two types of products are not compatible and may not adhere properly, leading to a compromised finish. It is recommended to use a sealer that is compatible with the type of stain you have applied.
No, it is not recommended to apply oil-based stain over a surface previously treated with water-based stain. The two types of stains are not compatible and may not adhere properly, leading to an uneven or blotchy finish. It is best to sand down the surface and remove the water-based stain before applying the oil-based stain for better results.
No, it is not recommended to apply water-based stain over oil-based stain as they are not compatible and may not adhere properly. It is best to remove the existing stain and then apply the desired type of stain for the best results.
The best way to apply water-based stain for optimal results is to first prepare the surface by sanding it smooth and clean. Then, use a brush or cloth to apply the stain in even strokes along the grain of the wood. Allow the stain to penetrate for a few minutes before wiping off any excess with a clean cloth. Finally, let the stain dry completely before applying a protective finish.
Yes, you can apply water-based polyurethane over water-based stain for your project.
No, you should not apply an oil-based stain over a water-based stain as they are not compatible and may not adhere properly. It is recommended to stick with the same type of stain for best results.
No, it is not recommended to apply oil-based stain over water-based stain as they are not compatible and may not adhere properly. It is best to stick with the same type of stain for consistent results.
Yes, it is possible to use a water-based finish over an oil-based stain. However, it is important to ensure that the stain is fully dried before applying the water-based finish to prevent any compatibility issues.
