This was great for a quick fix and worked perfectly for my living room project. It was a little hard to get the product flowing at first, but once it did, it was super easy to use and pretty much mess-free. I’d definitely recommend it for touch-ups, but it would take a lot more time and effort for anything beyond that. Review: Makes an Old Furniture Look New. - I ordered this to cover up scratches on my night stand and now it looks great. Easy to apply, dried quickly and no mess. The color matched and for the cost try it. ## Features - Liquid Volume: 4 Fluid Ounces 2-in-1 wood stain and applicator is perfect for crafts and small projects Water-based, low odor formula is easy to use and cleans with soap and water Enhances the natural beauty of wood without the mess of traditional wood stain Easy flow sponge tip provides greater color control for easy application and less mess Semi-transparent stain colors are buildable with multiple coats ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0B2KXQ7K2 | | Additional Features | Low Odor, Easy to Clean | | Base Material | Water-based | | Best Sellers Rank | #3,112 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #10 in Household Stains | | Brand | Varathane | | Brand Name | Varathane | | Coating Description | Water-based | | Color | Dark Walnut | | Compatible Material | Wood | | Container Type | Bottle | | Coverage | Good | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 out of 5 stars 2,065 Reviews | | Finish Types | Semi-Transparent | | Included Components | Less Mess Wood Stain and Applicator | | Item Dimensions | 1.75 x 1.75 x 6.5 inches | | Item Type Name | Less Mess Wood Stain | | Item Weight | 4 Ounces | | Liquid Volume | 16 Fluid Ounces | | Manufacturer | Rust-Oleum | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | Warranty | | Material | Wood,Stain | | Material Type | Wood,Stain | | Model Name | Less Mess Wood Stain | | Model Number | 368029 | | Opacity | 0.5 inches | | Paint Type | Water Based | | Recommended Uses For Product | Crafts | | Size | 4 Ounce (Pack of 1) | | Style Name | Wood Stain | | Surface Recommendation | Wood | | UPC | 020066491314 | | Unit Count | 4.0 Fluid Ounces | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Varathane - **Color:** Dark Walnut - **Material:** Wood,Stain - **Model Name:** Less Mess Wood Stain - **Surface Recommendation:** Wood ## Images ![368029 Less Mess Wood Stain and Applicator, 4 oz, Dark Walnut - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61bO2Fj6UPL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Will this allow me to restain a tabletop? I realize that I may need more than one?** A: Yes it should , especially if it's bare wood . You most certainly will need more than one .

The directions do not anything about needing a top coat. **Q: if being used on drink coaster, would i need to apply a sealer over this stain?** A: It has verithane in it , but when I used it I did add few coats of polyurethane. **Q: Need to varnish after application?** A: Instructions do not indicate needing anything further. Very nice stain with applicator. Dries with a soft gloss. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great for a touch up! *by K***E on April 1, 2026* Absolutely obsessed!

The built-in applicator makes it easy to spread the stain evenly, and cleanup is much simpler than traditional stain and rag methods — just wipe off excess from the sleeve. The stain itself absorbs nicely into wood and gives a rich, even finish. It’s great for furniture, trim, and other projects where you want a smooth, consistent look. I appreciated how easy it was to control the amount of stain with the sleeve. Just keep in mind that you’ll still want to work carefully and wipe away any puddles right away — it’s “less mess,” not mess-free. But overall, this product saves time and effort, and I’d recommend it for anyone looking for an easier way to stain wood without sacrificing a quality finish. 🪵✨ ## Frequently Bought Together - Varathane 368029 Less Mess Wood Stain and Applicator, 4 oz, Dark Walnut - Pro Grade, Paint Brushes, 5-Piece, Paint Brush Set: Flat & Angle Brushes for Latex and Oil Paints, Stains, Interior & Exterior Home Improvement - Varathane 381119 Water Based Wood Stain, Quart, Dark Walnut --- ## 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.co.th/products/446800085-368029-less-mess-wood-stain-and-applicator-4-oz-dark](https://www.desertcart.co.th/products/446800085-368029-less-mess-wood-stain-and-applicator-4-oz-dark) --- *Product available on Desertcart Thailand* *Store origin: TH* *Last updated: 2026-04-27*
