Getting a Knotty Pine look on Faux Wood Beams

Thinking about getting the knots on your new Faux Wood Beams to stand out like real knotty pine wood? Follow these few easy steps to get your beams looking great!

First you must pick the stain for your beam, in this example we used American Walnut by Minwax.

You will need to apply the stain to the knot area of the beam using a small paint brush. When you have finished, you will need to remove any extra stain. you can blot it off using a rag.

After the stain has fully dried, you will need to coat the beam with an overall stain.We used English Oak by Minwax.
