[QUOTE="fithwheel, post: 8656926, member: 674179"] The minwax/ box store Pre stain is more of a stain blocker then anything. I'm trying Charles Neil blotch control. Just did a test piece with no sanding. 1 side is no conditioner the other side is 2 coats of conditioner and a single coat of stain with about 5 minutes before wiping off excess. I think the C. Neil stuff is going to be a lot better then the box store stuff. No fasteners on the box other then for mounting the sub. Hopefully this will turn out better then other boxes I've done in the past. The minwax was so much of a blocker I never used it and delt with the blotch. This stuff is actually letting a lot of the color soak in compared to the minwax. Maybe there's something better from the big box stores other then minwax Pre stain idk. That's walnut minwax oil based stain on the test piece.
