July 4th DEAL on the lumber stainer. #onsale
What happens here
Before loading the machine, thoroughly prepare the stain or paint. Open the containers of the chosen finish (dark brown and gray finishes are shown in the video) and use a mixing stick or paddle to stir each container vigorously. Ensure the pigment is evenly distributed and the consistency is uniform, as pigments can settle at the bottom over time.
Goal: Achieve a consistent and ready-to-use stain/paint mixture.
