So I'm getting ready to spray now. I've got my stain one thing with any types of stain. You know, you're typically going to get settling and then settling into the bottom of the stain. So when you start off staining, you want to stir it really well, either using a stir stick. I like using a height stir whip. It just works a lot faster and stirs it up really, really well. So definitely want to make sure you stir it. I typically leave this in the stain and I stir it periodically, because you do get to settling down at the bottom, you'll fairly rapidly. So throughout the day, I'll stir it multiple times. And typically what I do, too, I'll have a stir stick to see if there's a lot of tent settled on the bottom. So I'll scrape the bottom and just bring my stir stick up. And as you can see, there's a little bit of tent on the bottom, my stir stick. So they're definitely right there. There's definitely tent down there. I want to make sure I'm on the bottom.
