I don't know what product you use, but any time I use it I air out anything freshly stained/painted for at least a week. Or double/triple what it says on the can

Stain takes a long time to thoroughly dry throughout because it soaks into the wood so the surface may be dry to the touch but the wood still holds the moisture so I agree with Stephan. Let it sit for at least a week to make sure.

Okay, sounds like a plan, thanks guys.... its spray paint, not stain, but still will let sit for a week.
