Question for wood workers...

[Rick]

Yeah, but it's just a little burn (snort, chuckle).

[Ken]

Ken - I work with Red Oak as well. After some experimenting, I settled on General Finishes stains. You can find it at Rockler Woodworking. They make a great polyurethane top coat as well. I usually apply three coats with a light 000 rub between each coat.

Thanks! I'll look 'em up online!

[Ken]

Yeah, but it's just a little burn (snort, chuckle).

Only at that moment.

[nilespathfinder]

when i do a custom handle i let the wood heat up in the sun or by heat lamp, it makes the open up, then i wipe it with a damp rag so it sucks the dampness in, let sit and watch it soak up, amazing really, then wipe with whatever stain you want, repeat if needed, then when its dry by sun light or heat lamp, rub with beeswax and i use a grinder fitted with a buffering wheel and buffer it 2 or 3 times, really depends on how you like the feel of it. buff it polish it and use. hope this helps, never let me down.

[Rick]

Why do you want it to absorb moisture. You're taking a chance on raising the grain.

[theswimmer]

If you want a dark finish with good contrast try leftover Expresso.
Course I never have any left over.

[nilespathfinder]

if you open the grain with moisture, like you would in staining wood trim, the wood soaks up the stain alot better and gives you a richer stain, at least thats what norm abrahm and my boss says, and it works.
