WineSafe™ Stains & Satin Sealant
The Benefits of WineSafe™
Wine Racks America has meticulously developed a range of water-based stains and a satin sealant that are both beautiful and safe for your valuable wine collection.
While oil-based stains are easier to work with, they emit gas for several months as they cure, which can penetrate the cork and spoil the wine. WineSafe™ is a water-based stain and satin solution that not only protects the wood but also provides a smooth, finished feel to your wine racks.
When applying stain to your racks, we always recommend adding a satin finish. Water-based stains alone give a beautiful color, but when applied to wood, the wood fibers absorb the stain and tend to feel rough—a phenomenon we call "furring up." Additionally, water-based stains do not penetrate as deeply as oil-based products, so they have the potential to wear off over time. Adding the WineSafe™ satin sealant will protect your stain and give your racks a polished look.

WineSafe™ Offerings
We offer 6 beautiful stain colors and the option to add a satin finish. If you’re aiming for a furniture-quality finish, then adding a water-based satin finish is essential. This process is done by hand in our Salt Lake City warehouse.
The process begins by applying an initial coat of satin finish. Once dry, each piece is hand-sanded to smooth out any rough spots on the wine racks. The second coat is then applied, which seals in the color and wood, providing a soft, touchable finish.
Should I Add A Satin Finish?
Short and simple, yes.
If you plan to add a water-based stain, adding the satin finish will smooth the finished product and protect the stain color for years to come.
If you are not adding a stain, but are wanting a more polished look to your wine storage system, adding the satin finish will give your racks a slight gleam and soft-to-hand touch.
