I am currently making a name and address sign, from Cypress, for my daughters new house. I will be routing out the numbers and letters and painting them black. The wood will be lightly stained and then covered with spar varnish. Would it be better to stain first and them paint the insides of the letters and numbers, or would painting first work better? I had planned to paint first but would appreciate any help from you more experienced members.
