General Finishes RTM Stain System
General Finishes new RTM Stain System consists of 10 standard stain color bases and a clear stain base that are intermixed to produce an unlimited range of rich, deep colors and specialized effects. Enduro RTM Stains are designed as a "Spray-Only" or as a "Spray-Wipe" stain product. Either method will yield well toned, consistent colors on a variety of wood species. The stain can also be entirely hand applied with excellent results and minimal blotching, even on troublesome woods.
This stain system allows you to utilize pre-formulated colors or develop your own color library from a few standard bases that help you manage inventory and prepare the quantity of stain you require, as needed.
Stain formulas are provided in a simple to reproduce system of "parts", where you choose the size of measure to use whether it be cups, quarts, litres, ounces, gallons or "thimblefulls". So long as you use a consistent measuring vessel, you will be able to maintain consistent and repeatable results.
A simple formula example is Color #29, requiring 1 Part of RTM Black + 7 Parts of RTM Trans Red Oxide. Also available in Ready To Use Pre-Mixed Quantities Here.

Excellent for stain matching
I have been using these stains as part of my Ready-To-Match (RTM) stain matching process and have been really impressed with them. Outstanding in every way!
