Hi. Can this be used as a wood conditioner prior to staining?

I don't know about the staining part but it does condition and it cleans wood, I use it on my wooden coffee tables...

No, wood conditioner is something totally different from wax! Wood conditioner will help the stain penetrate evenly, preventing blotchiness. You can use wax after you stain, but that isn't going to give you a very good protective finish, plus you would need to use a paste wax.

Having finished furniture myself, I would think that you would want a product meant for furniture. May I suggest that you use Minwax Wood Conditioner if you are going to stain and poly your dresser. Watco Danish Oil is another good option, it comes in clear or natural and a variety of other colors. It penetrates and seals the wood just by wiping on and off like a stain and you can use a poly urethane over it if you like. Teak oil is another option. These products are available at paint, hardware, Home Depot or Lowe's stores. I've found that paint store personal are the most helpful and knowledgeable about these products or look them up on their websites. Hope this helps.

I asked the manufacturer that same question. They advised that you allow the wood to dry out in between uses to avoid mold because the wood is untreated. I then asked them why they didn't treat it to avoid that problem. They advised that they have tried treating it in the past, but it resulted in staining on the clothes.

I've only used on wood and so far it has done a great job. You could test a small spot to see if it leaves a stain on it.

The wood is untreated so it should take stain just fine. You would want to make sure you stain and set before putting together.

I am thinking you can use it on a newly stained table. It is very gentle, no chemicals.....It may temporarily darken the wood but after applying you wait a few hours and then wipe it off. It really is so great on my wooden counters which are unfinished. If the wood is sealed with polyurethane or something like that, the cream wood just lay on the top and not penetrate the wood. I don't believe a stained wood would be a problem as long as it not sealed with anything else.....

probably not. you should contact the chemical's manufacturer or a flooring expert. wood stains I think are a different problem because of the materials being treated.

Interesting question .... I only used it to stain dectotive cedar wood. I worked fine and promoted the cedar oil smell.

Though the package doesn't make any mention of wood, it does suggest using it on walls and just about everything else. It's basically an enzymatic solution, similar to what you might use on laundry stains. Package recommends you test for color-fastness on any surface before applying the product. I've personally used it on a wooden furniture frame with some success (multiple applications and drying phases). I find that covering the applied product with a dampened cloth helps with its absorption into the wood (must have allowed 30-60 minutes). I have also tried this product on black furniture leather with less success, and without color changes.

It wouldnt be a bad idea to ise a food grade treatment. The wood is untreated. I have not treated mine and it cleans up well and has not stained or anything. But wouldnt hurt at all yo help it last

Yes. However if wood glue is used U must be carefull not to sand it too much, since the glue penetrates to some degree, and stain can become less uniform..

This isn't really a polish so much as a conditioner. I would only use it on a surface where you want some of its moisture to sink into the wood to keep it supple and to resist stains\markings. Personally, I would recommend against a lacquered surface since the wax of it would simply leave a dull film on the surface vs sink in and do its work in the wood. Hope this helps.

No. It is pre-treated and you don't have to....however of you wanted to change to "look" then it appears you could stain it.

Yes, but as with any cleaner, it'd be best to test it somewhere inconspicuous first.Not all wood finishes have the same durability. Particularly as this has to dwell for 10 minutes to disinfect, less durable finishes might not hold up.

I don't see an reason why you can't. I've used the product on a variety of wood surfaces. It will leave a slight sheen, if this is acceptable

No. It won't stain anything at all. I am a make, been using this 2 months now. It definitely helps my hair appear much fuller. I don;t know if it helps stop hair loss but it cannot hurt. My hair is still thick enough that it is hard to tell. As an experiment a couple days ago I used some Aussie full body shampoo that I used prior to getting this. My hair looked like complete s..t. Flat,...just bad. Anyway, it is woorking great for me and I do not have color treated hair...just got this one as it was cheaper. And a bonus, one bottle of shampoo lasted me until yesterday. Two months! My hais is not that short either. About 4 inches long on the top. It takes a really small amount of this shampoo. A little smaller than a dime for me.

The wood is finished, so not sure it would take a stain without sanding or taking off the finish.
