    Wood staining
    I have stained my casing and base mold both pine and after apllying my first coat of poly I have noticed white hazy marks on some of the pieces. I am not sure if it was my staining that caused this or the poly ontop of bad stain.

    What sort of stain are you using, and what brand of poly? How did you apply both?

    Also, did you treat the wood before you stained? If so, with what?

Cherry Wood-Prep and staining [ 4 Answers ]

I have a 60 year old Willet cherry wood dresser. I can sand most of it down to the bare wood. Before I apply a gel stain, do I need to prep the wood any? Also after 60 years, will this wood age and get darker like most cherry wood does? Thanks Jim
