Tintes en gel de General Finishes, Java

Java is a deep, dark brown that reads close to espresso. It is the signature color of the General Finishes Gel Stain line.

Java is the color featured across the nation's social media for upcycling furniture and cabinets, prized for its dramatic, rich result on dated wood.

Gel stains are heavy-bodied and surface-building rather than deeply penetrating, which is exactly why they are so widely used for makeovers of furniture and cabinets.

Yes. It is an oil-based gel stain and provides the deepest, richest colors of any oil-based stain available.

Gel wood stains are heavy-bodied and do not penetrate as deeply into the wood as liquid oil-based wipe-on stains do, giving you more control and even color.

Its thicker, heavy-bodied consistency gives it the most "finishing feel" of all the General Finishes products, building rich color smoothly with each application.

Sealing a stained project adds durability. Explore protective topcoat finishes to guard the dark color from wear.

It is made by General Finishes, the company that made Java a nationwide favorite for furniture and cabinet projects.

The Gel Stain line is widely used to transform dated furniture and cabinets, and its deep color is a popular way to reinvent the look of common woods.

Pair it with a clear topcoat finish for protection, or add depth and sheen with oils & waxes.
