2. The shade effect obtainable with Crown Varnish Stain will vary greatly depending upon the type and colour of the timber being coated.

3. It will not be possible to produce a light effect (i.e. Natural Oak or Light Oak) on a naturally dark timber or a timber, which has previously been stained with dark shade.
