Removing Wood Stain From Front Door

Rdaly1 · 2012-07-18 14:55:36

Hi, sanded down and put wood stain on my front door ( only 1 coat). Colour is wrong and turned out horrible - misses is looking for it to change it as she is suggesting it is too dark. Other than sanding it - what is the best way to remove it? Should I use a chemical? Any help required is appreciated.

Chemical paint stripper, scrape off woodstain, then sand . Use steel wool along the grain to help get a smooth finish. Clean with white spirits as water can raise the grain.
That's how I done my doors and windows.
