I've actually done some side by side tests with stains using conditioner vs not. I wouldn't call it necessary by any means. Depends on the stain and the wood but sometimes I did feel the result was noticeably better, sometimes I couldn't tell the difference.
- nkozyra 6y agoParent commenter might specifically be talking about yellow/white pine, which is notorious for splotchy staining and yellowing over time, which conditioner can mitigate a bit. If you're working with oaks or hardwoods, I agree with you.
- mattmaroon 6y agoTrue, my tests have been very informal so maybe it was more the Wood than the stains.
