"It went perfectly. Rick Jamison Painting's employees were here on time, they worked with us on the "look" of the garage door, and simply did a beautiful job. We were very happy with the results, and will be looking to Rick Jamison painting for all our custom painting work from now on! Jane McGregor"

"So-Cal Painting Done Right did a great job on refinishing and staining the exterior doors of my home. The estimate was accurate and Diego arrived on-time to complete the project. He was highly skilled and extremely knowledgeable about the entire project. He took the time to explain the whole project to me and made sure I was comfortable with the process before started. He was very skilled and experienced. The completed project exceeded my expectations. In the future I will definitely call So Cal Painting Done Right and request Diego- he’s definitely their super star."

"Sharp painting was very professional and painted the interior of our new home and did an amazing accent wall for our nursery. They were very meticulous and took time to make it exactly how I wanted. I would definitely use them again!"

"I used Wizard Painting again this week. As usual, Francisco and his crew did a wonderful job. I hired them to paint our banister, landing walls, hallway, and door frames. The paint job is perfect, the painters were friendly and courteous, the clean up was excellent, and the price was good. I am very happy, and I will definitely use them again."

Painting questions, answered by experts

Wood stain is typically dry to the touch within 6 to 12 hours, but it is not fully cured at this point. You should wait at least 24 hours before applying a second coat or a protective finish. For surfaces like decks, avoid walking on them for at least 24 to 48 hours, and wait even longer before placing furniture. The full curing process can take from 24 hours to one week, depending on the type of stain. Factors like high humidity and cold temperatures can extend drying and curing times, so it's wise to allow for extra time in these conditions.

If you want to achieve a deeper, darker stain color, wait 5 to 10 minutes before wiping it off. However, wipe it off faster for a lighter tone. When wiping off the stain during this part of the process, be sure to work in the direction of the wood’s grain for best results.

Your tool of choice ultimately comes down to personal preference. Many DIYers prefer applying stain with a lint-free rag, but others stick with a paint brush or a roller. Wipe the stain and work it into the wood, working with and against the grain. If you’re applying multiple coats, allow the stain to dry for around four hours between coats.

Staining a fence is less expensive than painting a fence due to the cost of materials and the longevity of the finish. Stain not only lasts longer than paint without chipping or peeling, but you also won’t have to put in the extra time and cost to prime the surface first. 

Preparation includes cleaning the fence, sanding any rough areas, applying a primer if necessary, and ensuring dry weather for application.
