Abstract

A method of staining a wood product includes sanding a surface of the wood product, wire brushing the surface to expose open grains in the wood product, applying a first coat of a toner to the surface of the wood product that penetrates into the open grains of the wood product, applying a second coat of the toner to the surface of the wood product after applying the first coat, applying a glaze to the surface of the wood product after applying the second coat of the toner, and applying a top coat to the surface of the wood product after applying the glaze.

Claims (34)

1 . A method of staining a wood product, the method comprising:

sanding a surface of the wood product;

wire brushing the surface to expose open grains in the wood product;

applying a first coat of a toner to the surface of the wood product, the first coat of the toner penetrating into the open grains of the wood product;

applying a second coat of the toner to the surface of the wood product after applying the first coat;

applying a glaze to the surface of the wood product after applying the second coat of the toner; and

applying a top coat to the surface of the wood product after applying the glaze.

2 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising drying the first coat of the toner for approximately 45 minutes before applying the second coat of the toner.

3 . The method of claim 2 , further comprising drying the second coat of the toner for approximately 45 minutes before applying the glaze.

5 . The method of claim 4 , further comprising drying the glaze for a duration in a range from 4 hours to 8 hours before applying the top coat.

6 . The method of claim 5 , further comprising post-processing the glaze after the drying of the glaze.

7 . The method of claim 6 , wherein the post-processing of the glaze comprises rubbing the glaze with an abrasive.

8 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the applying the glaze comprises:

partially removing the glaze in a cross-grain direction of the wood product and leaving the glaze in the open grains of the wood product;

allowing the glaze to set;

re-applying the glaze; and

removing excess of the glaze.

9 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the sanding the surface of the wood product utilizes a 150 grit sandpaper.

10 . A stained wood product comprising:
