How to Stain Like a Pro | DIY 101

[@yogawithauroralyra]

Hey Angela, I have been following you for YEARS and I just wanted to thank you for all that you do. Your vulnerability and hard work has been so inspiring to see and has motivated me to do little DIY things around the house! I'd love to keep getting better, and you've been my inspiration to keep improving.

Have you ever tried your favorite stain combo on cherry? I have a bed to refinish but unfortunately it's cherry but I want the look of early american + weathered oak!

[@Brando022009]

You did not explain if we need to remove the excess Wood conditioner and how long to wait after we apply the wood conditioner.

[@prajaktashivarkar7019]

Is that water based polyurethane or oil based? I used oil based on non stained wood. Will it get yellow after few years? Really worried

Using a random orbital sander is not "sanding in the direction of the grain", that's sanding in every direction. You can use a sander, but then finish sanding by hand, in the direction of the grain. If you want to stain like a pro, pick a better brand than Minwax. I've used Minwax so many times because it's the main brand you find everywhere. Try a brand like Varathane or General, and you'll see that Minwax is terrible.

Way to rain on the parade, jeeze. You can offer your opinion in a constructive way 😂

Thanks for the tip, I figured it was the best because it's everywhere!

@@watchaly re-read the comment. stating fact and opinion on the process only. known as constructive criticism. as in critiquing the process based on obvious substantial experience. people read things into comments all the time. this is strictly info and very helpful at that. zero judgment of Angela. only judgement of Minwax. My experience is the same btw. Especially when it comes to gel stains. For big box brands, Varathane is much better and priced the same. Minwax used to be solid a few decades ago.

only problem with this video is the lettering to the side of the screen is too light and small to see from the couch! otherwise, you are the best teacher!

[@angelarosehome]

Oh no. I'll work on that. Thanks for the tip!

[@forview59]

good job. you should show people how to stain your shirt too.

[@Johamo]

The light behind you on your left needs to be raised about half an inch. Sorry. It was bugging me

[@ghadirshahin8667]

She used water based wood conditioner and then oil based wood stain. Does anybody know if that is ok? Cause i have the water based wood conditioner and im not sure if i can use it with oil based wood stain??

[@grandmastermicochero]

why does your recipe call for 6 to 8 cups of flour but in the directions it says to add 3 to 4 cups and you've had as many as 5?? why the discrepancy?

[@Maheshramtandan]

[@georgiacollins13]

[@manylch7964]

You should really wear gloves to protect your skin from the chemicals in stain
