| | | | | | | Some open-pore wood species or woods with large imperfections, may need a wood filler to obtain a continuous, unblemished finish. A variety of filler products are available. Follow manufacturer’s instructions. Sand after filling.
To create your own filler, combine sanding-dust with your topcoat and wipe or squeegee it into the wood’s pores. |

| | | | | | Using Varathane Premium Wood Conditioner on softer woods before staining will prevent "blotching" caused by variations in wood’s density. Woods such as pine, fir, maple, and poplar vary significantly in density within a single board. Softer areas absorb more stain than harder areas, making the soft spots darker. |
