Wood Furniture Stain

Aesthetically, wood stain finish is a vital part of the final look of wooden furniture as it preserves the wood for everyday wear and tear. However, wood furniture will often have toxic stains that are composed of chemically-derived components that are flammable. However, there are safer alternatives in the market that use ingredients that are safer. So, when deciding to purchase wood furniture, it is always necessary to think about the end user. For instance, babies like to chew things, so cribs should have safe dyes, right? The by-product of the toxic chemicals used to coat wooden furniture is called “off-gassing” that are derived from petroleum-based solvents. Suffice to say, the strong odor you smell is contaminated air inhaled.
