QUESTION 58-When should you dry out or cure wood?

78%

Correct Incorrect When it's green: When wood is freshly cut or treated, it often contains a lot of moisture. To ensure it shrinks to its intended size and allows paint or stain to adhere properly, the wood needs to be air dried. If you want to skip this waiting period, you can opt for kiln-dried lumber, which is already dried out for you.
