Yes. I do it by painting the stain on the wood with a paint brush to get an even coat. You can re-coat in a few hours until you get the color you want. Then, you have to let it dry longer than the can says since you didn't wipe off the 'excess.' Wait about twice as long as the can says before you put a covering coat of anything.

If you don't let it COMPLETELY dry before you apply the glossy finish, the vapors in the stain will force their way out thru the gloss coat and blister the glossy finish and make a mess.

The last time I did this, I let the stain air dry for 3 days before applying the glossy coats. I've had no problems with the results but you have to very patient.

How do you make a semi gloss paint shinier?

Add Flat Paint to the Semi Gloss (SG). As a general rule, using commercial "production" grade paint. If you want "Satin" and have SG. you could add 1/3 of a Gal flat, tinted to the same color. If you want SG and have full Gloss Paint, Add 1/3 of a Gal Flat, tinted the same color. The reverse is N O T true. If you want full gloss and have Flat, it won't work in my experience. Experiment on your own. Just remember its easier to tone down gloss than to add it. This is assuming the paint is still liquid. If it is already on the walls, and you want to avoid repainting. A "Matte" finish Clear Coat could be sprayed over the whole wall, But to do it "right" you would want to repaint

How do you clean a high-gloss simulated wood floor without streaking it?

The only thing I use on high gloss floors is Shaklee Basic H. You can find it at shaklee.com and it is cheaper/better quality than anything you will find on the market. I find the key is using one of those flat pad things with the washable terrycloth covers to dry it right after you mop to keep it from streaking Stream
