When you finish your project and find that you have some TWP Stain leftover, not need to worry the product can be kept for a few years when stored properly.
Unopened cans of TWP stain have a shelf life of a few years and opened cans will keep for 1 to 2 years. An opened 5 Gallon pail will not reseal and should be used within a few weeks. If you will have stain leftover in your 5 Gallon Pail you can purchase an empty 1 Gallon Metal paint can from your hardware store. Transfer mixed product into the container and seal tightly. Also be sure to write on the can so you remember what you stored in it.
