I’m so glad the camera man moved when that ridiculous ring tone started getting me so mad that I contemplated throwing me phone across the room just to make it stop! Doors look beautiful! Nice job guys. Alder wood is not the easiest wood to stain( due to the make up of alder) but they turned out wonderfully
Hahahahha, I know....haha, that drove me crazy!!! I almost didn't upload the video because of that ridiculous ring tone! lol, thanks so much for the comment 👍 the only reason I had to post was I thought the stain color was so nice and they all turned out really even, especially for alder
Do you ever have to match stain color? Like trying to match a new door to the existing doors? Stain matching is always a problem for me. Maybe a video on that would be helpful?
Kinda weak. I mean, your application is top notch, but you never explained ANYTHING about how you were applying it, tips, advice etc. The video says "how to stain" not "watch me stain"
Video leaves me with many questions...only one coat of stain, if not, how many? Is there a clear coat applied to finished door? If so, how did you apply it...sanding, satin, etc.? Glazing? Finished door appears much darker than the light colored stain being applied to door in beginning of video...
Hello Jeff, thanks for the feedback. So in this video we only do one coat of stain. Only in rare occasions do we do 2 coats, but that comes with a hole different set of problems...re activating the oil...Now with water-based stains you can do multiple coats, but oil u just want 1. We do spray 2-3 coats of Laquer after our oil stain has dried all the way. Sometimes Laquer will change how a door looks vs a door with only the stain color on it. Thanks for the comment
@@jessicadick6662 Hello Jessica, yes I am a firm believer in wood conditioner always before staining. It just really helps bring out the character of the wood and makes you look really good when staining! If it is a really small piece you can sometimes not use for a drawer front of something small, but I definitely always use wood conditioner 👍🙏

Hey there! I have an Alder wood front door -- do you have any suggestions on what to use to stain an exterior door? Thanks for this helpful video!
What color is that?
How many coat does it take to achieve this tone?

Always wipe with the grain not in circles
did you pre-stain? I see the can..
Yes, we always like using prestain. It makes the finish product so much better. Thanks for the comment 💪🙏
@@PaintBoss what kind of prestain do you use?

@@PaintBoss was a wood conditioner applied first before staining?

What stain is this
Minwax wood finish
What is the stain color you used?
On these doors we used minwax puritan pine 👍it is a beautiful color!!
@@PaintBoss how many coats does it get to achieve this tone?
Not a how to. Don't even say what type of stain is used. Lighting is horrible
That was the good old formula Minwax. Now it streaks and sets up too fast
