Panel edge staining

Okay kiddo, so when we talk about panel edge staining, we mean the process of coloring the edges of a wooden panel or board to match the rest of the wood. You see, sometimes when we cut wood, the edges can look different than the rest of the wood because they are not as smooth or they might have a different color. To make the wood look nice and uniform, we use a special solution that we put on the edges of the wood. This solution is like a magic marker for wood and it colors the edges so they match the rest of the wood. It's kind of like coloring a picture book, but for wood! These stained edges make the wood look nicer and more finished. It's a little detail that makes a big difference!
