STEPS
1.   PREPARE: Always work in a well-ventilated area. 
Cover the floor and nearby items with drop cloths.
2. SAND:  Sand the surface of the wine rack 
lightly, progressing through 120, 180, and 220-grit 
sandpaper. Always sand in the direction of the 
grain. Remove sanding dust between each grit of 
sandpaper by lightly dragging the tack cloth across 
the surface. 
3. STAIN: Using a clean, lint-free rag, generously 
cover the wine rack with wood stain. Let the stain 
  sit for 2-3 minutes (or as instructed on the label) 
then wipe off any excess using a clean rag. Tip: 
Wipe in the direction of the wood grain. Let dry 
for 1 hour. 
4. PROTECT:  
Protect your wine rack by applying 1 coat 
of Varathane Triple Thick Polyurethane using a high 
quality synthetic bristle brush. Allow approximately 2 
hours to dry to touch. Allow 48 hours to cure before 
moderate use of project and 7 days for total cure.
