Timber should be evenly sanded with a minimum of 180 grit paper prior to staining to ensure the stain applies and dries without patchiness. It is important that clean, white lint-free cloth is used for application and wiping as fibres could catch in the grain and colour could be leached out of coloured cloth by the solvents in the stain. It is important that any surplus stain is wiped off cleanly from the surface, as any residual stain could impair adhesion of subsequent lacquer coatings. Nitrostains may not be used to tint lacquers of any type.
