Applying Stain

     On Day 2 he applied the stain.  This dried overnight and on Day 3 he returned to apply the three protective sealing top coats.
     The odor?  I found the stain smell lingered through the day and into the evening.  But it wasn't real strong, just a little annoying, but it went away by morning. The final sealing/top coat product had barely any odor.

All spread on hands and knees using a cloth. Austin is using a foam brush to get up close to the base of the fireplace, and to avoid getting any on the stone of the FP.

Almost finished -- and they back themselves out through the kitchen entrance.
