How To

How to stain hardwood

Staining wood is the process of applying chemicals to the wood's exterior, which alters its color. This chemical reaction changes the wood's color from white to brownish. Although oak is the most popular type of wood to stain, there are many other types that can be used.

There are many methods to apply stain to wood surfaces. Some methods include mixing the stain along with a solvent like turpentine and then applying the mixture to the wood by brushing or spraying. Other methods use a solution of water and dye applied directly to the wood. Stains can also be mixed into paints and varnishes, becoming part of the finish coating.

Preparing the surface is the most important step in staining wooden surfaces. To apply the stain, clean the wood completely. Sanding smoothens any scratches or rough spots. The next step is to determine the type of stain you would like to use. Penetrating stains are different from non-penetrating. Penetrating stains penetrate deeper into the wood than non-penetrating ones, making them ideal for dark colors such as mahogany. Non-penetrating oils work best when used with light colors, like maple.

After deciding on the type of stain, you want to apply, prepare your tools. A paintbrush works well for applying stains because it allows you to spread the liquid evenly across the surface. After you're done painting, make sure to have some rags handy to remove any excess stain. If you plan on mixing the stain yourself make sure that you have enough containers to hold the different components.

After you have prepared your materials for staining, clean the area. To remove dirt and dust, use warm water and soap. Use a dampened sponge and warm water to clean the entire piece. 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. You should work slowly and carefully. Continue moving along the grain until you reach your opposite end. Keep the stain from dripping off the wood's surface. Let the stain dry completely before proceeding with the next steps.

Protect the painted surface with a coat polyurethane paint sealant. Apply three coats of polyurethane sealer. Allow the third coat to dry overnight, before sanding.
