The Best Stain | The Expert Lumber Staining Machine

What happens here

After staining with Expert Stain & Seal oil, boards can be immediately up-stacked or down-stacked (e.g., stacking them flat on top of each other) as the non-drying nature of the oil prevents them from sticking together. This significantly speeds up the workflow. The self-leveling property also means any minor fingerprints or handling marks that might occur will disappear within 5-10 minutes, resulting in a flawless finish. The presenter mentions that they typically up-stack the boards for about an hour and then down-stack them for easier transport or further processing.
