Best way to stain a fence and have no overspray! #overspay #fencestain #cedarfence #fence

What happens here

Once a picket has been fully stained and brushed, carefully retrieve it from the exit end of the machine, handling it by the edges to avoid smudging the wet stain. Transport the freshly stained pickets to a designated drying area. Stack them efficiently by leaning them against a sturdy support like a fence or wall, or lay them out flat on a tarp, ensuring adequate air circulation around each picket to promote even and complete drying. Avoid stacking them flat on top of each other directly to prevent them from sticking together or transferring stain.

Goal: Ensure proper drying of stained pickets
