How to Stain Wood the EASY Way!
Staining wood can be a pain sometimes due to how messy and labor intensive it can be. If you're staining deck posts the stain often times drips gets on the cement below/around the post, or you have to go over the post several times to get full coverage and the desired color you were aiming for. Good for you that I recently found a product that is going to change all of that! It is stain in a CAN! Sprays just like spray paint, but it is STAIN! Come see how I transformed my dingy old and worn deck post with this new stain. This stuff saved me a ton of time and money (no gloves or paint brushes needed!) Woot! Woot!
Here are my posts after using the spray stain. Trying to stain an upright/vertical wood beam or post can be messy so I procrastinated doing this project until I discovered the spray stain!
This is the amazing product that changed the way I stain my exterior wood pieces. You simply clean your surface with a broom or towel to remove any crusty debris, then shake the can well and apply with long even strokes.
Here is my old and worn deck post BEFORE The stain! It is dull and grayed out from the sun and water. It took me roughly 15 minutes (each) to prep and paint my posts and an hour to dry. After an hour they were dry enough to replace the solar caps but I wouldn't rub up against them until they dried over night.
