How can I protect the Reactive Stain afterward?

Reactive stain only produces the color; afterward, it has to be protected with a finishing product. For the on-site finishing, we recommend our Hardwaxoil Magic. By combining a reactive stain with a colored oil one can obtain many different finishes.

One cannot roll or brush waterborne finishings such as a varnish over the reactive stain, because this could partly dissolve the color. However, one can spray a waterborne finish on the reactive stain, which offers many possibilities for industrial finishers.

Be sure to let us know if you would like more information about our reactive stains for professional or industrial use.

How to apply Ciranova Reactive Stain?

Make sure that all old finish coats are completely removed and that the wood is free from dust and other dirt. Can be used on sanded, planed, and brushed wood. Pre-wetting the wood can reduce the risk of overlapping.

Stir and shake well before and during use. Apply reactive evenly stain in the direction of the wood fiber, even out afterwards. Reactive stain can be applied using a brush or spray gun and subsequently smoothened with a brush or mop.
