Application instructions:
- Fill nail holes with Fix Wood Patch. Do not use plastic wood.
- Sand specific areas with 120 sandpaper to clear blemishes.
- After taking care of holes and blemishes, sand the entire piece uniformly with 180-grade sandpaper. Finer sandpaper or steel wool should not be used as they polish the surface off too smoothly.
- Remove dust with a vacuum and tack cloth.
- Stir the stain thoroughly before beginning and occasionally during application to ensure a uniform color.
- Test the color on a concealed area that has been prepared as directed to check that you have selected the proper color.
- Apply the stain liberally, one section at a time while keeping the surface wet with a foam brush or latex paint applicator. If the stain is not applied liberally, an uneven appearance may result.
-
After completing each section, wipe off evenly with a soft cloth.
-
One coat is all that is required. Darker colors may be obtained by waiting eight to 10 hours to apply a section coat in the same manner as the first.
-
Wait eight to ten hours before applying your choice of top coat.
