What is "wood stain"?
Wood stain is a type of liquid applied to wood to change its color and enhance its natural grain. It is available in various shades and can be used to darken or lighten wood surfaces, giving them a rich, polished look. Wood stain also helps protect the wood by providing a layer of moisture resistance and preventing damage from sunlight. It is commonly used on furniture, floors, cabinets, and decks to improve the appearance and durability of the wood. Stains come in different types, such as oil-based, water-based, or gel, each with specific advantages depending on the project.
