Pre-staining the lumber before cut and install. New construction painter. #newhomes #woodstain

What happens here

Begin the pre-staining process by carefully positioning the wooden lumber, such as beams or decorative corbels, on stable supports like sawhorses. Ensure that the wood surfaces are clean and free from any dust or debris. Dip a suitable paintbrush into the chosen stain and sealant, allowing any excess product to drip back into the bucket to avoid drips and waste. Systematically apply the stain evenly along all visible surfaces of the wooden pieces, making sure to achieve thorough and consistent coverage. The video features the use of 'Expert Stain & Seal' a self-leveling, non-drying oil-based product, which is notable for its ability to be applied in a wide range of temperatures, including cold conditions as low as 39°F (approximately 4°C). This pre-staining technique helps ensure full protection and aesthetic appeal before the lumber is installed, simplifying the overall construction process.
