Ciranova Reactive Stain is a premium, waterborne reactive wood stain designed to create authentic, aged finishes by chemically reacting with the natural tannins in wood. Ideal for achieving vintage, weathered looks on white oak, red oak and other tannin-rich woods like walnut, this stain penetrates deeply to highlight the wood's grain and texture without obscuring its natural beauty. Unlike traditional stains, it doesn't just sit on the surface—it interacts with the wood for a durable, non-fading color that evolves.
Available in 20 unique shades, from subtle neutrals like Silk 7942 NT to bold tones like Smoked Oak 1971, Reactive Stain offers endless customization. Mix it with Reactive Stain Clear to adjust intensity for lighter or more dramatic effects.
It's perfect for professional woodworkers, DIY enthusiasts, and flooring specialists seeking high-quality, sustainable results.
Always topcoat with a protective oil or varnish, such as Ciranova Hardwaxoil Magic, for enhanced durability and water resistance.
Whether you're refinishing furniture, cabinetry, or hardwood floors, Ciranova Reactive Stain delivers professional-grade aging effects that mimic years of natural patina in just one application.
Follow these steps for optimal results with Ciranova Reactive Stain. Always test on a small, inconspicuous area or sample board first, as results vary by wood type, sanding, preparation, and amount applied. The final color depends on these factors, so testing is recommended.

Additional Tips:
Does Reactive Stain work on all wood types?
It's optimized for tannin-rich woods like oak, but can be used on others with testing. For pine or maple, expect milder effects.
How do I choose the right color?
Refer to our downloadable color chart or order 100ml samples. Colors appear differently based on wood species and lighting.
Can I use it outdoors?
Recommended for indoor use only; outdoor applications require heavy-duty sealants and may fade faster due to UV exposure.
What's the difference from regular wood stains?
Unlike pigment-based stains, Reactive Stain chemically bonds with the wood for a more natural, permanent aged look without buildup.
