To stain for a different wood color:
1. Remove wine caddy, the top two racks in the upper drawer and the
top rack in the bottom drawer with wood trim from unit. See Wine
Rack Removal/Installation.
2. Remove screws securing wood trim to the racks and caddy.
3. Remove screws securing wood trim to the two racks attached at
the drawer slides so wood can be removed for treatment.
4. Apply Minwax
bristle brush or a foam applicator. Stain must penetrate approxi-
mately 3 minutes. After this period, while stain is still wet, take a
stain dampened rag and remove all excess stain. Wipe in the
direction of the grain with medium pressure to achieve the desired
stain color.
5. After 2 hours, repeat step 4. This will even out the color of the
wood.

surface from the staining process.

wood. This finish should be applied in a thin coat following the
direction of the grain. First apply the finish to the back and sides
of the wood. Allow this to dry for two hours. Next apply the finish
to the front side of the wood and allow to dry for two hours. Sand
with very fine sandpaper (220 grit). Reapply in the same manner
3 times total. After the third coat do not sand the surface.
