What happens here

Before applying stain, mask any hardware or non-wood elements that should not be stained. The presenter uses blue and yellow FrogTape to cover the doorknob and hinges on the shed doors. He emphasizes the effectiveness of FrogTape due to its polymer that swells to prevent stain bleeding underneath, ensuring clean lines. This step is crucial for achieving a professional finish without unwanted stain on metal components.

Goal: Protect non-stained hardware from stain application.

this frog tape this is going to keep any bleeding from happening it's got a polymer that swells up that stops paint from bleeding underneath it so i'm going to wrap some tape around this i'm also going to i got to leave this doorknob just like this masked off i won't put any paper on that because i got to use it to get open and close the doorknob but i've got some hinges i'm just going to mask off these hinges because i don't want any stain on the hinges so i'll just wrap some tape on these things the best you know i possibly can you can stain the hinges some people just stain right over them i'm trying to see if this tape is going to stick do [Music] i want to verify i got cabin brown is what i'm staining the color with so this is our woodscapes solid color stain and stains are different than paints because stains actually absorb into the wood where a paint creates a film on top of the wood so it's very important on wood surfaces instead of using a paint to use a solid colored stain it's going to perform a lot better raw wood or bare wood
