I too am currently stripping and sanding some stairs, having removed a hideous carpet.
The risers will be painted in white satinwood, the treads are gonna get a coat of Osmo anti slip oil.
But what would be the best thing to fill the gaps between the risers and treads with?
I've got some Osmo pine wood filler which I'll fill nail holes and gouges in the treads with, but i think if I used it in the gaps it would crack as the stairs flex in use. Maybe decorators caulk? I'm guessing it will look less weird in white, to match the risers, rather than pine, to match the treads?
