Chestnut Stain
Hi folks,
We have some trim details I’d like to color match to the cabinets if possible.
Can you share the brand & color stain you use for the Chestnut finish?

We have it custom mixed by a local company here in Portland, so it can be a bit tough to get an exact match. That said, a local paint shop should be able to get close.
We sell the Chestnut stain at the link below. This stain is water-based, so it goes on easily, but it is really meant to be sprayed on, as that is how we apply it in our large flat-line finishing process to ensure consistency. Clearcoat is then applied over the top.
Sherwin-Williams Gallery clear in a 20 sheen is an almost exact match to what we use. We use their industrial line, called AkromaPro, but the underlying formula is almost identical.
You can wipe the stain on, but certain woods may get blotchy, especially alder and maple, so be careful with those species.
