Flexitions Staining: The Right Way
-
Our Step-By-Step Guide to Staining and Installation
-
Step 1:
Lightly sand the molding surface with 150 grit sandpaper to enhance stain absorption.
-
Step 2:
Apply water or solvent-based wood wiping stain using a staining cloth or rag, ensuring even coverage. Test the stain on a scrap piece or the back of the molding to confirm compatibility and desired color. Some stains may require multiple coats.
-
Step 3:
After applying the stain, wipe off any excess with a clean cloth to achieve the desired finish. Apply additional coats if needed for desired darkness. Allow the stain to dry for at least 24 hours, or longer if necessary, as drying times may vary by brand.
-
Step 4:
Once the stain is completely dry, apply a polyurethane clear coat to the molding using a brush or spray. Let the clear coat dry for a minimum of 24 hours before allowing foot traffic on the molding.
