Here is an important tip. Never forget this! #tips #handyman #homerenovation

What happens here

To ensure the wood stain's pigment is evenly distributed for a consistent application, attach a paint mixer paddle to a cordless drill. Submerge the mixer into the bucket of wood stain and slowly begin to stir. Continuously mix the stain for several minutes, moving the mixer up and down and around the bucket to ensure all settled pigments are thoroughly incorporated into the liquid. The video shows the use of a self-leveling, non-drying, penetrating oil from Expert Stain & Seal, highlighting its suitability for various wood staining projects such as fences, decks, siding, hardwoods, and shakes. Wearing gloves is recommended to protect hands from the stain.

Goal: Ensure even pigment distribution throughout the wood stain
