## Questions & Answers

**Q: can you use danish oil after applying this wood conditioner?**
A: Theoretically yes. However, I always suggest trying a different wood.

**Q: Can you use a water based stain after this?**
A: I would not recommend. If you use an oil base, the later layers should also be oil base. Minwax also has water-based Pre-stain.
