An important tip when staining is that you really want to flood the surface of the wood with the stain then gently wipe off the excess after maybe a minute or so.
Wow, that came out a lot nicer than I was expecting. Definitely gonna do something similar with my old 90s pearl export which has been sitting in cardboard boxes for years. Hell I might even straight up steal your design too. Thanks man
Why do you have to tape the edges? What does it prevent . Trying to do this on my kit.... Wanted to stain the whole kit a dark brown and put a blue stripe in the middle and have the snare be an invert of the whole kit... First time doing something like this so we shall see how it goes
Kendrick Thomas just keep in mind, the products I used are bottom of the line so you could always try it with better stain and clear coat. Unfortunately I don't have any recommendations. I'm stoked that my video helped you out! Send me some pictures when it's done.
Can I use a 2in1 stain & varnish high-gloss wood finish on my drum shell? I'm making a project and I've remove the wrap on my drums cause it's too dirty and can easily tear the wrap so I decided to take them out and make a new wood style looking on my drums
Hi, I am about to do this myself but I just wanted to ask, do you apply the clear coat as many times required and then sand? Or do you sand per each time you apply a new coat? Cheers mate, excellent video
Sand between coats with 220grit. Just enough to smooth out uneven surfaces and to create an abrasive surface for the next coat to have a strong bond. You don't want to remove what you just applied.
you got me going mang. it'll be -20 or more soon here in beaver fuck Canada so I will adjust accordingly; staying away from outside. my child free Labour from my sons will create memories and less work for dad. cheers
Thanks man, this a great video and I find pretty instructive and hilarious haha. Only question is, how long did it take you to do this? Could I do this in a weekend? And if it's not warm (it's the Fall, and in Indiana lol) would drying be a hassle?
Best stain tutorial EVER!!!! Glad he explained how to apply the square root of the davinci code.... That will really come in handy!
We have witnessed no less than the pythagorean theorem in action!
Very nice!

This is so good lol - “and neither do you “” hahah
They look amazing! Crazy!
They look so good I want to play them! Sweet
Looks awesome !I'll be following this method on an old floor tom to try and match it with an existing kit.Cheers.
I really enjoyed your video. I have a lower grade kit I wanted to do something with! It is finished in the black wrap as well! Thank you!!
Your right, we have no idea what your going to do,lol. Decent job tho in the end, especially considering what started with.
Dude that turned out great! (yes im late to your staining game)
Do more videos ... Youre funny..
I love this guy
what is the spray you used? is it just balack spray paint?
nice
That looks sweet. I'm about to do the same to an old kit I have. Cheers man.
Nice job!
Amazing bro... and you're quite intelligent.

If it gets on the inside of the shell or the bearing edges it can change the sound of the drum

hey rich after you clear coat and sand and clear coat again do i do that same processes if i want to get it more shinny?
what kind of varnish did you use ??
My daughter has a shitty beginners kit, maybe I'll take the wraps off and do this. Some good heads and some tweaks and it can be a cool practice kit.
Skip the brush use a wrap while wearing latex gloves and keep wiping around the shell till it's nice and even.
What is preety good is the Corvette C3...hahaha...I love it!
nice.
Bottom Line: looks fuckin outstanding !!!

Rag not wrap

... I do this as a profession... You did not even read the instructions on the can. They look crappy. Loaded with tons of flaws.
So stoked to have a professional chime in negatively on a video that states in the title "with no skill". Of course there are flaws goofball.
