A neat little trick that a Pro Painter Taught Me! #painting
What happens here
Once the lower sections are stained, use a sturdy ladder to reach the overhead beams and structural components. Continue applying the stain with the paint brush, using the same long, even strokes and following the wood grain. Pay close attention to covering all exposed surfaces of the overhead structure, ensuring no spots are missed. Be cautious when working on a ladder to maintain balance and prevent accidents.
Goal: Stain the upper beams and components of the wood structure.
