What happens here
Although not explicitly shown in the video, preparing the fence (cleaning, repairing) and gathering all necessary supplies are crucial first steps for any staining project. This includes the stain itself, application tools like a sprayer and brush, and protective gear. Ensure the fence is clean and dry before starting and that all safety equipment is readily available.
Goal: Ensure the fence is ready for staining and all materials are at hand.
Tools and materials
- Back-brush — For working the stain into the wood grain and ensuring even penetration
- Cardboard Shields — To protect the ground and adjacent surfaces from overspray
- Gloves — To protect hands from direct contact with the stain
- Paint Sprayer — For efficient and even application of the stain
- Respirator — To protect against inhaling stain fumes, especially with oil-based products
- Safety Glasses — To protect eyes from stain particles during spraying
