Materials Required
Wood door edging strips
Solvent-based or water-based wood stain
Stain brush or rag
Clean cloth or sponge
Mineral spirits or denatured alcohol (for solvent-based stains)
Safety gloves

Step 1: Prepare the Edging Strips

Before applying any stain, prepare the edging strips by sanding them with fine-grit sandpaper to remove any splinters or rough edges. Wipe away any dust or debris with a clean cloth.

Step 2: Choose a Stain Color

Select a stain color that complements the existing door frame or panel. Experiment with different shades to find the perfect match. Test the stain on an inconspicuous area of the edging strip first to ensure satisfaction with the color.

Step 3: Apply the Stain

For solvent-based stains, wear safety gloves and work in a well-ventilated area. Apply a thin, even coat of stain using a brush or rag. Allow the stain to penetrate for the specified time according to the manufacturer's instructions.

For water-based stains, follow the same application process. However, use a clean, damp cloth or sponge to apply the stain and wipe away any excess.

Step 4: Remove Excess Stain

After the stain has penetrated for the recommended time, wipe away any excess using a clean cloth or sponge. Use mineral spirits or denatured alcohol to remove excess solvent-based stain.

Step 5: Dry and Clear

Allow the stained edging strips to dry completely in a well-ventilated area. Once dry, apply a clear coat of polyurethane or lacquer to protect the finish and enhance its durability.

Tips for Achieving a Perfect Color Match
Use a light touch when applying the stain to avoid over-saturation.
Allow the stain to penetrate for the full time specified by the manufacturer.
Wipe away any excess stain immediately to prevent streaks or blotches.
Experiment with different application techniques (brushing, sponging, wiping) to achieve the desired effect.
Consider using a wood conditioner before staining to enhance the evenness of the finish.
