Project Features
1. Why Stain?
Wood stain was chosen as the primary material to preserve the natural texture of the wood while giving it a rich color. The stain creates a matte effect and maintains a natural look, aligning perfectly with the client’s requirements.
2. Three Doors, Three Challenges
Each door required special attention to ensure their tones perfectly matched the interior design.
Challenges of the Process
• Avoiding multiple layers on the same spot:
• Staining requires precision because reapplying stain to the same area can lead to uneven coloring or make it darker. This means every brush stroke must be deliberate and flawless.
• Preventing drips:
• Stain, being a liquid material, can easily create drips, especially on vertical surfaces. To avoid this, each door was treated in multiple steps:
• Stain was applied in thin layers.
• Excess material was immediately wiped off to prevent buildup.
• Each door was carefully inspected for consistent coverage.
• Achieving even application:
• Professional techniques and experience were essential to achieve the perfect result. The surface was meticulously sanded between steps to ensure a flawless finish.
Outcome: Natural Beauty Without Compromise
The three wooden doors were transformed with a stunning new look thanks to the stain, which made them a stylish focal point of the interior. Without using lacquer, we achieved a natural effect that highlighted the wood’s structure and preserved its unique texture.
