Would it be a bad thing if I used a heatgun to try and dry woodstain faster? Would it crack and craze, would it oxidise, would it run everywhere and look rubbish afterwards?
I had to fit a new weather bar to my door frame, and whilst the door was out of the frame I thought I would give it a spruce up. I prepped properly and used Sadolin wood stain (was really good stuff last time I used it... on a warm summer's day...).
It is 7:30, the stain is still wet (some hours later) and it is currently 2 degrees celsius. It was about 8-degrees when I applied the stain, and the tin said not to use it below 5 degrees...
So, in order to improve drying time, I was wondering if I could use my electric heatgun (the hairdryer-on-steroids type), and would it be worth the hassle?
Feel free to call me a silly chilly boy, but only if you have some useful advice too
I just need to get it dry enough that I can refit it to the frame, and close it for the night without the door glueing shut.
