What happens here

The presenter highlights the benefits of using a non-drying oil-based stain when working near metal hardware, such as on a gate. Unlike drying oil-based products, any stain that gets on the metal components can be easily wiped off, even hours later. This eliminates the need for time-consuming masking of hardware. He demonstrates wiping off spilled oil from the metal fence frame with a green cloth. He also mentions that leaving a thin film of this oil on the metal can help prevent rusting and corrosion, providing an additional protective benefit.

Goal: Demonstrate easy cleanup on metal hardware due to non-drying oil stain properties.

right off now you can see I've got oil all over my Hardware right here and wiping it down is significantly faster than actually masking it off you see I can just one swipe just wipe that right off oil comes off you're actually adding your oil to this metal that will keep it from rusting and corroding also so I was kind of just leaving a thin film of oil on there but wipes right off don't even have to mask it at all and I can come back you know later on today and wipe this off I don't have to actually do it right now I can do it you know later when I'm all done with this fence or when I'm all done with even the gate [Music] so one of the reasons you I have this extension you can see I got it hooked up to a three 3ot extension it Mak makes it so I don't have to bend over to get down low if I was brushing and rolling just a regular brush I have to bend down there to actually reach that so the extension pull just makes my life a lot easier so I'm just going to give you a simple little tiff before I start staining I found I'm using um expert staining seals oil so it's a non-drying oil uh I typically always wear gloves for a lot of different reasons the
