Apply Wood Stain/Finish

Do I spray everything? Brush or spray? What is the best method? #painter
What happens here
Using a wide paint brush, dip it into the reddish-brown wood stain or finish, ensuring the brush is adequately loaded but not dripping excessively. Begin applying the product to the countertop, working in long, even strokes along the direction of the wood grain. Maintain a 'wet edge' by overlapping each stroke slightly with the previous one, which helps to prevent visible brush marks and ensure uniform coverage. Continue applying the stain, spreading it evenly across the entire surface of the countertop until it is fully covered. Pay attention to edges and corners, ensuring they receive adequate coverage. The video demonstrates a continuous application technique for a smooth, consistent finish. Allow the first coat to dry according to the manufacturer's instructions before deciding if additional coats are needed for desired color depth and protection.
Goal: Evenly coat the countertop with a reddish-brown stain or finish
