        "text": "Log interior staining differs substantially from conventional drywall painting because wood absorbs liquid unevenly and requires continuous grain management. While sheetrock accepts rolled latex paint evenly over primer, log walls demand manual brush work, back-brushing, and careful wipe-downs to avoid lap marks and blotching. Logs also move, expand, and shrink with indoor humidity, meaning finishes must remain flexible rather than forming a brittle skin that cracks. Furthermore, surface preparation on timber involves removing sap pockets and hand-sanding curves, which requires finish carpentry knowledge rather than standard roller techniques.",
