It takes the dread out of staining because it behaves so well it goes only where you direct it to go with the rag. “What customers tell us they like best is that there is no stirring, there’s less potential to make a mess and no chance to tip the can over. At that point, you can decide how much you want to work with, but you’ll find that it goes a long way. In other words, don’t try to spray on enough to do the whole piece at once. We suggest you start with a golf ball sized dollop and work with it until you get a feel for how it handles on wood. “You can work a small area, then move on to the next because Foam Stain does not leave overlap marks. Additionally, the rag absorbs some of the stain as you work, and once it absorbs enough, it becomes a stain-charged applicator so that there is little if any waste. All of it will be absorbed into the wood as you rub. Unlike traditional stains, there is no excess to wipe off. All you need do is take a soft cloth and rub the foam into the wood.
Spray out a dollop of foam, and it stays just where you put it. It penetrates as well as a traditional liquid stain, but is less messy and is easier to control. “Instead of a drippy, sloppy traditional liquid stain, Foam Stain comes out of an aerosol can with the consistency of whipped cream. To that end, our latest new product launch is Varathane Foam Stain. We are constantly adding new products that we think will make wood finishing easier, more convenient and more enjoyable. We both improved the clear formulas and added new products, including stains, gel stains, touchup and repair products, and tinted topcoats. At the time, Varathane made only clear finishes. “Until 2001, when it was acquired by Rustoleum, a division of RPM,” Matt explained, “Varathane was part of the Flecto company. I decided to call Matt Moon, the senior brand manager for wood care products at the company, to get the lowdown on this very odd, very fun version of wood stain, and as a bonus, got a quick history lesson as well. Out comes colored foam as fluffy as whipped cream. Grab the unusually shaped aerosol can with its slender waist, put it up to the wood, and press the tip. Now Varathane, one of the most respected names in wood finishing, has gone a step further. Eventually, gel stain appeared on the horizon, offering less drip and a bit more convenience. It changed the color of wood just fine, but was messy and tended to drip. Once upon a time, stain was colored liquid.
