New Wood Finish Combines Stain and Protection

Minwax announced One Step Stain & Topcoat on 22 September 2026, combining wood stain and a protective finish in a water-based product for furniture and cabinet refinishing. Its official instructions still require surface preparation and a second coat on previously finished wood. Availability was announced for the US market; Turkish distribution and compatibility with TPU protective films have not been established in the cited sources.
