Hello,

You can apply knot stabiliser to help prevent knots working loose over time, but they will typically still be visible through stain, as the purpose of stain rather than paint is to maintain the appearance of the wood grain.

Hope that helps,

Phill

Ensure each layer (knotting solution, primer, stain, and topcoat) is fully dry before proceeding to the next step.
Work in a well-ventilated area and follow all safety guidelines on the product labels.
Test the stain on a small, inconspicuous area first to ensure the desired color is achieved.
By following these steps and using the recommended materials, you can effectively obliterate the knots in pine wood, apply stain, and achieve a durable, beautiful finish.

If your staining you can't really hide them  but to stop any remaining sap etc Ronseal knot stop is great also I find "Sikkens" woodstains the best and long lasting.
Hope this helps

Hi Andrew.
If these knots are in the places where the door is fixed, it is not possible to remove them because the wood will become weak. However, if they are in places where nothing is fixed, they can be removed and any wood putty can be applied, then the paint can be applied. The best paint is lacquer, which gives the wood its color and has light or dark shades.
