Review: Highly recommend for diy projects - I have used this on so many different DIY projects and it always turns out looking great. I love that. The finish looks like real wood, even without using the word grain rubber piece. It is a little pricey, but it is definitely worth the price. easy to apply, not such a strong smell. i've used it inside and outside and the smell doesn't bother me. would recommend sanding before using cause I did put this over a painted cabinet and it has peeled some but very minimal. Review: Magical! Really looks like wood! - I used this to transform a fake light wood countertop into darker wood. It was my first time, so it was an adventure. The product itself works great and really does look like wood. One mistake I made (user error) was using painter tape, which ended pulling up some of the paint that was already so perfect. :( But I was able to patch up those spots, and it just made the wood look a little more rustic and reclaimed. Next time, I'll forgo any taping off, because it's water-based and I can just clean up anything it touches with just a wet paper towel or Q-tip (which I ended still needing to do anyway). I did also buy a top coat for a little more sheen and protection. Not sure it needed it, as a top coat is built in to the product, but since I'll be placing things directly on top of it and moving stuff around, I wanted it to be a little more protected. ## Features - [VERSATILE HYBRID TECHNOLOGY] New Nano-technology makes this the most Versatile gel stain & glaze on the market - [USES] - Great for furniture, trim, floors, garage doors, front doors, etc - [GEL STAIN] - This thin gel stain rides over an existing finish just like a typical gel stain - [WOOD STAIN] - Thin enough to absorb into unfinished wood like a traditional wood stain ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B09M1C52SV | | Best Sellers Rank | #15,236 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #54 in Household Stains | | Brand | Retique It | | Brand Name | Retique It | | Coating Description | Water-based | | Color | 10 Classic Black | | Compatible Material | Wood, Metal, Porous Surfaces | | Container Type | Jar | | Coverage | 360 Square Feet | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 out of 5 stars 763 Reviews | | Finish Types | Finished | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00016455979679 | | Included Components | Quart Gel Stain Hybrid | | Item Dimensions | 3 x 3 x 5 inches | | Item Type Name | Gel Stain, Wood Stain and Paint Glaze | | Liquid Volume | 32 Fluid Ounces | | Manufacturer | Renaissance Innovations, LLC | | Material | Stain | | Material Type | Stain | | Model Name | Thin Waterbased Hybrid | | Model Number | Gel Stain | | Opacity | 1 inches | | Paint Type | Water Based | | Recommended Uses For Product | exterior-and-interior | | Size | 32oz Stain | | Surface Recommendation | Wood | | UPC | 016455979679 | | Unit Count | 32.0 Fluid Ounces | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Retique It - **Color:** 10 Classic Black - **Material:** Stain - **Model Name:** Thin Waterbased Hybrid - **Surface Recommendation:** Wood ## Images ![Water-Based Gel Stains by Retique It (32oz Stain, 10 Classic Black) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71213nf-d0L.jpg) ![Water-Based Gel Stains by Retique It (32oz Stain, 10 Classic Black) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81M8TimdVOL.jpg) ![Water-Based Gel Stains by Retique It (32oz Stain, 10 Classic Black) - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61BdahItG3S.jpg) ![Water-Based Gel Stains by Retique It (32oz Stain, 10 Classic Black) - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81zs6QpMWjS.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highly recommend for diy projects *by E***W on December 31, 2025* I have used this on so many different DIY projects and it always turns out looking great.

The kit comes with an instruction card with QR code to watch a demo video so you’re fully prepared before starting. Follow the steps as outlined and you will be fine. The only thing i would add is that I had to recaulk because I scraped off the old gunk to have a clean surface to start my project. I caulked before adding my topcoat and would suggest doing it afterwards. Because I used a silicone based caulk (to protect against water, mold etc. especially around the faucet and sink) it doesn’t take the topcoat well. It beads up on top of the silicone, I simply just did not think about it before caulking. I would say caulk as your final step to be on the safe side. I used the pickled oak color, wanted to go for the butcher block look with my countertops. The stain has some gray undertones, I didn’t mind but something to consider for your overall look and finish. The stain and wood grain tool does add depth and gives the look and feel of real wood. My kitchen looks brand new for less than $200! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/617245607-water-based-gel-stains-by-retique-it-32oz-stain-10](https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/617245607-water-based-gel-stains-by-retique-it-32oz-stain-10) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kuwait* *Store origin: KW* *Last updated: 2026-05-18*
