How To
How to stain wood
Stain wood is a process that involves applying chemicals to the surface of wood, which changes its color. This chemical reaction causes wood to turn from whiteish to brownish. Oak is the most commonly used wood for staining, but other woods can also be stained.
You can apply wood stains in many different ways. One method involves mixing the stain and a solvent and then spraying it on the wood. Others use a solution made up of water and dye, which is then applied directly onto the wood. You can also mix stains with varnishes or paints so that they become part the finish coating.
Preparing your wood for staining is the first thing to do. You must clean the wood well to remove any grease or dirt that might interfere with the application of the stain. Sanding smoothens scratches and rough spots. Then you must decide what kind of stain you want to use. There are two basic kinds of stains: penetrating stains and non-penetrating stains. Penetrating stain penetrates deeper into wood than nonpenetrating, making them suitable for dark colors like mahogany. Penetrating stains are best paired with lighter colors, such as maple.
After you've decided what type of stain to apply, get ready for your tools. You can use a paintbrush to apply stains. This allows you spread the liquid evenly over the surface. A few rags are also handy to clean up any spillages after you have finished painting. If you plan on mixing the stain yourself make sure that you have enough containers to hold the different components.
After you have prepared the materials, you can clean the area where you want to stain the wood. Use soap and warm water to remove dust and grime. Use a dampened rag and clean water to wipe the furniture. You should remove any debris, especially if your plan is to stain darker wood.
Apply the stain. Next, apply the stain to the furniture by starting at one end. Slowly and carefully work your way along the grain to reach the opposite end. Be careful not to let the stain drip off the wood's edge. Before moving on to the next steps, allow the stain drying completely.
Protect the painted surface with a coat polyurethane paint sealant. Apply three coats polyurethane sealer. Allow the third coat to dry overnight before sanding the final coat.
