How do you stain and finish interior wood?

Providing the wood is already free of any old finish, paint or dirt, apply the stain with a clean, dry cloth. If it's a large project apply the stain to small area at a time, using the wipe on, wipe off method - meaning after you wipe the stain on, going with the grain of the wood, use another cloth to wipe off any excess. Allow the stain to dry thoroughly. Once it has dried apply the finish with a short nap sponge roller for larger projects and a brush for the smaller jobs.
