Can this be used with exterior stain?

Stain penetrates. The product produces a grainy texture and will not penetrate the wood. I would not use it with stain.

I would not use with stain. Stain and paint are 2 different products to protect wood. Stains is absorbed by the wood fibers, paint lays on the surface. The ceramic product would interfere with the performance of the stain.

yes IF you going with a solid color stain, and No, if it is a semi-transparent product

I am not sure if it can be used with stain or not. The best thing to do would be to contact the mfg. This is what I had done myself with my application questions before purchasing this product. Insulted.com 888-813-5065

I haven't tried it, so I don't know. there is a Stain Solver web site that lists all the stuff it cleans, and how to do it. I suggest you google it and look there. good luck

Yes, it can. You have to be careful about wiping the stain as it may dry unevenly even when you think you've wiped it properly. I ended up doing two coats of a dark cherry stain but got the desired finish in terms of color.

Yes it can. Sometimes there may be a white residue yet can be removed for staining. Timbor penetrates into the wood as well.

Yes...we used it on three exterior doors, which open inward. Just choose the color carefully, as it is slightly visible from the outside (but not from the inside).

I would not recommend it and it will stain the plastic trim. What I suggest is to dress the trim with is a good protectant like the mothers protectant spray 5324. I hope this helps.

Yes, it worked for an oil based stain. Although the cleanup took a little bit of effort.

The short answer would be yes...however, as I have used stain for years on both my house and shed...take the time to put it on with a brush...thickly as you can. My husband and I disagreed on this, he blew a coat of stain on one side of the shed and was done in jig time...I painted with a brush. By the fall of next year, his stain was very faded and worn-looking, my side still looked like new. It's a catch-22...spraying is fast, but you have to do it every year...painting is slow, but it has lasted 5 years so far...your choice! :-)

Scott, it would not be a good choice for any exterior application. I wouldn't use it for flooring period. It's best for furniture in my experience.

I called Formby company for you, since their telephone number is on the bottle that I have in front of me. The customer relations advisor said their finish is only for inside furniture. If you want something for exterior wood use a product using teak oil and some of the Minwax finishes can be used outside.

I haven't done this, but don't see why not. The stain probably isn't any thicker than other gardening solutions commonly used in this sprayer. Thinking that it may be easier to throw sprayer away after the job, or spend a whole lot of time doing a proper cleaning so as not affect future spraying .

I haven't used it over stain, but it does impart a very light coloration to untreated wood (almost a richness). I am guessing it will very slightly darken your stain. Even though it is a green product I would think twice before using it on a surface for food prep

Yes, with practice you could spray stain on a picket fence with little waste. But once you start you should plan on doing the whole job. The cleanup after using stain is horrible.

I used oil base stain and it worked great. Test with spray settings first for better control.

I have painted over this product with good success. I have not attempted any stain. Since the product keeps moisture from penetrating, I would be reluctant to stain. Stain works by penetrating wood.

Yes it can be stained but be sure you put at varnish over it when the stain dries

Sure it will work for that. Obviously, if you have some heavy staining then you may need some type of cleaner to help lift the stain but this will add a lot of agitation power that you just couldn't get by hand. It's only issue would be it doesn't get into tight corners.
