Such a wonderful substance as wood stain is intended to give the wood a qualitatively new look that will be appropriate for certain purposes. This option is suitable for those who do not have any special tools at hand, as well as for those who do not have the skills of aging professionally. And sometimes it is necessary to do this in order to implement the plan.
The wood stain allows you to do everything quite quickly and simply, the process itself is not laborious, and it does not take too much time to execute it. It is important to note the fact that the result is really excellent, which cannot but rejoice the performer himself and someone who is interested in doing such work.
There are two options for using wood stain. For non-porous wood, it is appropriate to use certain types of compositions, and for open-porous wood, almost any can be used. In the second option, you should take a hard metal brush, which should rub the tree in the direction of the fibers. Depending on the severity of how this is done, a greater or lesser degree of pore openness or fiber openness will be noticeable. In the event that the board is glued from the end, this will not be required.
If a wood stain is used, then it is necessary to glue over those parts of the wood that are important to leave intact, otherwise smudges may form, because this is a liquid and corrosive material, which is important to remember. When the preparatory work is completed, the product can be varnished. After drying, it will be possible to apply a stain to the product. This is done with a brush. There is no need to worry if traces of it, various blackouts and so on are visible, since all this will be quite easy to eliminate later.
It is important to remember that pasting, which was discussed above, helps to protect the product from the fact that it will be damaged if the stain spreads. Such smudges will not be able to be sanded or removed in any other way, since they are eaten into the surface quite strongly.
After the wood stain is completely dry, you can take up the work with the skin. This must be done very carefully. Where the substance penetrated between the fibers, it will remain, and it can easily be removed from the protruding parts of the product, because the array was previously varnished, which did not allow the stain to penetrate the tree itself. The composition remained only on the surface.
Of course, you can independently adjust the degree of contrast when working with a stain, which is quite convenient, this is done by sanding and leaving darker places. You decide what places of the product should look like. After that, you can varnish everything. The choice in this case also depends on the expected result: it can be glossy or matte varnish. Another important point may be the fire protection of wood. There are special formulations that allow you to implement this task. In this case, you yourself choose which will be the most suitable.
As you can see, wood stain allows you to quickly and efficiently process wood, it is only important to properly follow the sequence of actions.
