SHOP MILK PAINT

General Finishes Milk Paint is a premium interior/exterior mineral based paint named for its low-luster sheen, which mimics the look of old-world furniture paint. It is not a powdered, casein-based milk paint, but a premixed modern version that is so durable it does not require a topcoat unless you want to increase the sheen.

SHOP GEL STAIN

Gel Stain from General Finishes is home of the popular Java Gel Stain featured across the nation's social media for upcycling furniture and cabinets. Gel wood stains are heavy-bodied and do not penetrate as deeply into the wood as liquid oil-based wipe-on stains do, providing the deepest, richest colors of any oil-based stain available.

SHOP TOP COATS

Winner of Fine Woodworking's "Best Overall Choice Award," High Performance Topcoat was voted as the hardest, most durable consumer polyurethane topcoat.
​Flat Out Flat is a self-crosslinking water-based topcoat that mimics the lustrous look and feel of wax. 

SHOP PRO LINES

Award winning best describes General Finishes line of superior water-base topcoats and sanding sealers. Capturing both Best Overall and Best Brush-on award from Fine Woodworking, our water-based topcoats have continued to delight the woodworking community around the world.
