They are a Quebec-based company, but there is a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.samanwoodstain.com\/\">US site<\/a>, so the products may be available elsewhere in Canada.<\/p>\n<p>The wood filler is latex-based so it will not shrink or crack, it is sandable, and it is stainable.

I have a bottle of their &#8216;oak&#8217; colour and it is almost a perfect match for my woodwork. Every time I notice a chip, discoloration, or other mark, I dip a Q-tip in the stain, apply it, and then wipe it off with a tissue. It even works on the pressboard casings that have worn edges. What an easy way to do maintenance and a great product to keep your RV woodwork looking nice over time!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This weekend, my mother and I are finishing up the wonderful new dresser for the dressing room.
