I used a stain called dark walnut made by Cabot.They have been making stain since 1877. Just get a half pint can. It goes a long way. I have probably enough to do 2 more easy. I put clear sealer over it and then the decals and then about 8 coats of clear lacquer. I rub mine out. It is so shiny that you can rub it out in about 10 minutes and then a nice coat if Minn Finishing paste wax. That wax will last forever so get as small a can as you can.Hope this helps. |

Here we go again with the transparent stain over natural wood again...Gotta love it...Wood like that was never meant to be covered with anything other than a light stain/color and clear.
