Step 4Staining. Polyurethane

Staining. Polyurethane
Staining is mainly up to you. I just stained the legs to see what they would look like. My girlfreind is going to finish this table later. She is going to Paint it all black with white notes on it.

But if you were going on.

I stained the legs by adding the stain then wipe it off with a rag untill I got the right color. Let it dry then restain if needed.

Applying the polyurethane

I clean it all up an wipe it down with very light mineral spirits.Then I put the polyurethane on the table, let it stand for 4 hours an re apply. I only add two coats. The stuff I have is glossy to so it adds a nice shine.
