Our Staining Process is Unlike Any Other

HomeBlogOur Staining Process is Unlike Any Other

At Capital Staining LLC, we don’t believe in taking shortcuts, and our dedication to producing quality results shines through on each project we complete. We have a detailed, multi-step process that we follow for all our fence and deck staining services, which differs from what most other companies do.

How We Do Staining Differently

We begin with thorough surface preparation using sodium metasilicate and/or sodium hydroxide as needed to clean the surface, providing a clean slate to work with. Next, we neutralize the wood with oxalic acid, which opens up the wood’s cellular structure, allowing for maximum stain penetration.

This multi-step preparation process allows the oil-based stain we use to completely soak into the wood’s fibers, creating a rich, even color that is resistant to fading and peeling. Unlike water-based alternatives, our stains are weather-resistant from day one, and our integrated approach to staining includes sealing as part of the application, not an afterthought. This means better protection and longer-lasting results in a single, comprehensive treatment.
