Waterborne stain: lye pine or antique pine – both exceptional!

Waterborne stain is available in various color variations, including lye pine and antique pine. These distinctive color variations impart a classic appearance to light-colored wooden furniture. Waterborne stain lye pine, a color variation that gained popularity in the 1980s and remains a popular choice for furniture, gives wood the look of a caustic soda treatment. Waterborne stain antique pine is also light in color but slightly warmer. Ultimately, the choice is largely a matter of taste.

Points to consider during application

Whatever your choice may be, you naturally want to ensure the best result. Here are some tips to help you get started:

  • The authentic stain colors lye pine and antique pine are best suited for untreated wooden furniture or floorboards;
  • If you’re using previously treated wood, remove any lacquer, wax, or oil residues from the surface to be treated;
  • Sand the surface and remove dust before applying the stain;
  • Stir the stain well before use for even distribution of the pigments;
  • Apply the stain with long, even strokes for the most uniform coverage;
  • Avoid artificial drying, as this can result in color variation.
