If you want to make your life
easier when it comes to staining window trim then stain the window trim
prior to installing it on the walls. By doing so you will eliminate
countless hours of having to cut around window trim edges that are already
attached to the window frame and walls.
To stain window trim you'll need
a sponge brush, a clean rag, work gloves and stain of course.

To pre-stain window trim first
layout some cardboard or newspaper in a open area such as in a garage.
Make sure to keep the windows or doors open so that you have plenty of
ventilation.
Next stain a piece of window trim
using the sponge brush. Apply the stain liberally to make sure you get in
all of the cracks. Also make sure to stain the top and sides, as well as the
ends. Don't bother staining the back of the trim.
After staining the piece of
window trim immediately wipe it down with a dry and clean rag. Do not wait
until you've stained all the other pieces of window trim. If you do, the
first piece will appear much darker than the last piece you stain.
Once you've stained all of the
window trim and have wiped it down, allow the window trim to dry for a
couple of hours before installing it on the windows.
One final tip: Keep the stain and
a rag next to the miter saw. After each cut of the window trim, touch up the
cut edges with a little stain. This way you'll prevent having to touch up
the window trim after it has been installed on the window frame.
