Don't Make These 4 FENCE STAINING MISTAKES! (Most Overlooked Fence Stain Pro Tips + Tricks!)

Fence staining is a relatively forgiving process--but there are still a few crucial mistakes you want to avoid making. This short video from The Honest Carpenter and Oak City Coatings will teach you several overlooked professional tips for staining fences!

Before staining a fence, you should always READ THE PRODUCT DETAILS ON THE CAN! If necessary, you can check the white papers on the companies website for additional application information.

For many types of stain, you want to SATURATE THE WOOD TO THE POINT OF REJECTION! You really want to load a lot of stain onto the fence, because the wood surface will actually drink it in and wick it up.

You can apply stain with a sprayer, or a natural bristle brush. Either way works just fine. The sprayer is a faster way to get more material on the fence--but you have to be sure to "back brush"!

Many pros prefer oil-based stains over water-based stains because they penetrate the wood pores better and therefore provide more durability. Water-based stains are harder to apply evenly, and are prone to peeling if misapplied.

TRANSPARENT AND SEMI-TRANSPARENT STAIN are non-film forming. So, if you have to do additional coats with these types of stain, do it before the stain has dried. (This is known as a WET-ON-WET APPLICATION.)

SOLID STAINS, on the other hand, may be film-forming. So, for these stains, you actually want to wait for the product to dry before you reapply.

Solid stains are also good for older fences, where the appearance of the wood has degraded over time.

Also, expect some non-uniformity in the appearance of your stained fence--this is natural with wood products.

Thanks for watching!
