Review: Forget Squeezing The Tube - Like all Minwax products, Express Color Wiping Stain provides an easy, effective way to stain or color wood. But forget the instructions on the tube. After shaking well, REMOVE THE TOP COMPLETELY by unscrewing it. Don't even bother to try and squeeze the stain out... you'll end up making a mess. Slowly tilt the tube, placing a small amount on a clean soft rag. If you apply it directly to the wood you run the risk of creating a dark stain, depending on how quickly you begin to wipe and how porous the wood may be. Apply the stain to a rag and wipe on, spreading it out evenly. It does dry quickly, an hour or so to the touch, three to five hours for a second coat, overnight before using a clear coat or putting it into service. Cleanup is easy with hot water and dish soap. Finally, if you plan to wash the rag after use, be sure to wash it with other non-critical rags. Any color remaining in the rag can bleed into your other items in the wash.
Review: Produces a beautiful green color. - This stain is different from regular stain as it is very thick. It works great on flat surfaces, but doesn't flow into carved areas as well as one of MinWax's regular stains. That's the bad. Here's the good news. It thins with denatured alcohol just like shellac. So if it gets a bit too dark on flat surfaces because you had to work it into the low spots, run a brush or rag with denatured alcohol over it to lighten it up. Shellac will lighten it as well because of the alcohol content.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Little challenging for small projects
*by D***R on October 6, 2018*

I'm in the process of making some small jewelry boxes and have been using the various Minwax stains for them. Overall I love the colors and ease of application. The instructions on this one tell you to squeeze some stain onto the project and using a cloth, spread the color around. On a large project, it would work beautifully, as you have some space to squeeze the stain out. On a small project, I ended up squeezing the stain onto the drop cloth and using a brush. That being said, I love the color and overall look of the stain. The clean up is a joy (gotta love waterbased stains!). I believe this specific stain also has a wax finish built in. I'm planning on putting polyurethane over it (again, the Minwax waterbased...awesome stuff), but just looking at the project this morning, there is a smidge of a sheen. Great product if a little tricky to apply!
