Dear DIY Doctor my question today is very simple I would like some information on sanding and staining.
Warmest Regards

Certainly Claire,
Please find outlined below the information you requested:
The most important points to observe are to maintain even pressure and never to rub across the grain of the wood. If undue pressure is exercised on any part of the Work, there is risk of leaving a faint hollow or depression, which, though it may not be obvious at the time, will probably be quite noticeable after the finishing project has been completed. Unless rubbing is done up and down the grain, when applying stains, the stain may dry out patchily, with some parts darker than others.
