How To
How to stain wood
Staining wood can be described as a process where chemicals are applied to the wood surface. This causes the wood to take on a new color. This chemical reaction causes the wood color to change from white and brownish red. The most common type of wood used for staining is oak, although many other types of wood can be stained.
There are several ways to apply stains to wood surfaces. Mixing the stain in a solvent such as turpentine and spraying it onto the wood is one method. You can also apply a solution containing water and dye directly to the wooden surface. The stain can be mixed with paints and varnishes to become part of the final coating.
Preparing the surface is the most important step in staining wooden surfaces. You must clean the wood well to remove any grease or dirt that might interfere with the application of the stain. Sanding the wood smooths out rough spots and scratches. Then you must decide what kind of stain you want to use. There are two main kinds of stains available: non-penetrating stains and penetrating. Penetrating stains penetrate deeper than non-penetrating stains, which makes them great for dark colors like mahogany. The best non-penetrating colors are those that work with light colors like maple.
After you've decided what type of stain to apply, get ready for your tools. Because you can spread the stain evenly with a paintbrush, it is ideal for applying them. To remove any stains left behind after painting, you will need some rags. If you plan on mixing the stain yourself make sure that you have enough containers to hold the different components.
Once you have prepared your materials, start by cleaning the area where you plan to stain the wood. Use warm water and soap to clean away dirt and dust. You can wipe down the entire furniture using a damp rag with clean water. Make sure you eliminate any loose debris, especially if you plan to stain darker wood.
Next, apply the stain. Apply the stain by brushing or spraying it onto one side of the furniture. Work slowly and carefully, moving back and forth along the grain of the wood until you reach the opposite end. The stain should not drip off of the wood's edge. Let the stain dry completely before proceeding with the next steps.
Clear polyurethane is used to protect the painted surfaces. Apply three coats with polyurethane. Allow the third coat to dry overnight, before sanding.
