A stain pad applicator is a type of paint applicator that is used to apply paint or stain to a hard surface. They are commonly made from natural materials like cloth, felt, or paper.
Functions For Use
The purpose of using a stain pad is mainly for convenience and ease of use. It allows people to easily spread the product without having to worry about spilling it on their clothing or hands. Stain pads also make it easier for people who have difficulty holding small objects because they are large enough for people with arthritis.
How They Help
A stain pad applicator is typically used on hard surfaces where there are few areas of complicated detail and texture. It is a sponge pad with a handle that is typically made of natural or synthetic fibers, like cotton, that is wetted with a cleaning solution and then used to apply stains or liquid cleaners to various surfaces.
The handle of the applicator pad often has a loop for holding it, resting against one’s palm.
Selecting An Applicator
When choosing the right one, keep these things in mind:
- The pad should be soft enough to not scratch the floor surface.
- The pad should have enough texture for you to get a good grip on it – If you want to use it with a roller, it should be durable and not easily breakable.
- The pad should be absorbent and provide a wide range of use.
Best quality stain pad applicators are essential for a quality wood staining process.
