I have another basic beginner question for y'all.
What's the best way to prep and finish a wood sign that will be outdoors? What about metal?

Re: Wood prep
The wood prep would depend on what kind of finish you are looking for? Paint? Stain? Clear?
The kind of wood matters too. Pine? Redwood? Cedar? Mahogany? Plywood?
If it's a flat sign, metal or plywood would work best.
