work for a company that installs custom cabinets and moldings. Almost everything we do is paint grade, MDF and poplar. The other day it was raining I was stopped from picking up some maple 1 x by my shop Forman. He stated that if the wood got wet it would not be any good for staining. I have never heard this before. Is there any truth to this. He is basing this off of a previous mantel that had gotten wet and had to be removed because the staining didn't come out right. I don't know who stained it but my guess is that the owner did and had no idea what he was doing. thanks. snipped-for-privacy@aol.com
