How To Refinish Wood Hand Railing. Hacks Staining Stair Spindles.
What happens here
With the airless sprayer prepared, begin applying the lacquer to the stair railing. Start by spraying the balusters, using an even back-and-forth motion to ensure uniform coverage without drips or runs. An assistant is shown holding a drop cloth to protect the adjacent wall from overspray. Once the balusters are done, move on to the handrails and newel posts. The video mentions that the carpet is being replaced, which simplifies floor protection. Apply multiple thin coats as needed, allowing appropriate drying time between coats according to product instructions.
Goal: Apply a smooth and durable lacquer finish to the stair railing.
