Supplies Needed:
- Well-ventilated area. Your project may take several days depending
on the size of the piece of furniture, so plan ahead.

- Brushes
- Paper Towels or Rags

Preparing the Wood:
- Read all instructions for stains and finishes.
- Even though the furniture is sanded at the factory, you will need to do some additional sanding with #220 sandpaper to be sure the surface is properly prepared to absorb the stain. Fill any nail holes with a wood putty at this time as well.
- Remove the dust with a clean cloth or vacuum.
|
Staining:
- Stir stain well before using.
- Test the color in a hidden area, then wipe off the excess to be sure you are happy with your choice.
- Stain your piece, working in manageable sections.
- Allow to dry completely.
- Apply top coat, sand lightly then apply a second layer. Let Dry.
