To begin, I applied a layer of Tobacco Road Voodoo Gel to the entire surface and sides of the wood block using a cloth rag.

When applying gel stain with a rag, be sure to apply an even layer, removing any excess product as you go.

Next, I used a chip brush to apply the color Kudzu to the center portion of the block.  When doing this, I was sure to avoid the edges.  I also added less paint as I moved toward the edges of the block.  I wanted it to have a very undone look.

Once dry, I sanded the edges of the block to finalize the rustic look.
