Staining Guide For Fiberglass Doors
Iberville Fiberglass doors can easily be stained to achieve a beautiful finish, however, if you have little staining experience we recommend staining to be professionally applied.

MATERIALS REQUIRED:

- Quality Gel Stain 
- G
reen Scotchbrite
- Lint Free Cloth
- Mineral Spirits
- Soft Lint Free Brushes
- Quality Exterior Grade Polyurethane Topcoat With UV Inhibitors

SURFACE PREPARATION:
Wipe the door with mineral spirits or acetone to clean any dust or residue from the surface. Scotchbrite may be used if there are "scuffs" or small scratches that require blending. Allow door surface to dry completely before applying stain. DO NOT use sandpaper on surface.

STAIN APPLICATION:
1) Be sure to read the stain manufacturers instructions on the label.
2) Starting at the center of the door, apply stain with soft bristle brush in grain direction, enough to completely fill the door grain.
3) With a clean, lint-free cloth, softly wipe the surface in grain direction until you reach your desired tone.
4) After all the stain has been wiped evenly, add finishing touches by using a small soft brush and lightly wiping before moving on to next section of the door.

TOP COAT:
Allow stained door to completely dry for 48 hours or per stain manufacturers instructions.
1) Be sure to read the topcoat manufacturers instructions on the label.
2) Apply topcoat with soft bristle brush in grain direction.
3) 2-3 coats should be applied with a minimum of 24 hours drying time between applications.

MAINTENANCE:
Depending on weathering, your door will endure; a topcoat should be reapplied every 2-5 years.
