Water Based Wood Stains

Van Technologies has successfully developed a water based wood stain series that matches the quality of the finest oil based stains available.  Low in V.O.C.'s and H.A.P.'s, wood finishers can easily make the transition to compliant water based finishing systems without compromising quality.  The development team at Van Technologies has selected only the very finest colorants which provides the fine wood finisher the ultimate in stained wood appearance. Typical water based stains lack the brilliance and clarity of conventional solvent based stains, but the VanAqua stain series maintains the brilliance and natural beauty of wood.  Van Technologies can also custom color match the VanAqua-220 or VanAqua-222 stain series!

Here are the Water Based Wood Stains available at Van Technologies:

VanAqua-220 Water Based Wood Stain

The VanAqua-220 stain series is ultra low in V.O.C.'s and H.A.P.'s.  The VanAqua-220 stain series is applied by wiping, spraying, or dipping and then easily wiped to create a uniform shade of the desired color.  The VanAqua-220 stain series dries remarkably fast - usually within 15 minutes.  It is also ready for sealing with VanAqua-240 and VanAqua-245 water based wood sealers immediately after application, making the entire finishing process faster and more efficient.

VanAqua-222 Water Based Wood Stain

The VanAqua-222 stain series is ultra low in V.O.C.'s and H.A.P.'s.  The VanAqua-222 stain series is applied by wiping, spraying, or dipping and then easily wiped to create a uniform shade of the desired color.  This stain series differs from the VanAqua-220 series in that it has been designed for slow dry applications.  The VanAqua-222 is ideal for staining large pieces such as doors, table tops, etc., or other applications that may require more water based sealers upon completion of drying.  A minimum of two hours is required for stain dry time before sealer application under normal temperature and humidity conditions.
