These are all classic, brown color stains, you can check out 5 gray wood stain options here if you are interested in gray colors and white wood stain options for white stains.
I thought it would be helpful to round up 10 favorite wood stain colors and show samples of what they actually look like on wood. That's the IDEAL way to do this.When it comes to picking out what stain color to use for a project, there are many different wood stain colors to choose from! It can be overwhelming to choose from all the stains available on the market and know what the stain color will actually look like on your wood project. The full staining process starts on Monday. You tell the refinisher what you want on Saturday. I like to see stain patches put down on Friday (with a coat of finish) and then the homeowners view it over the weekend. And make sure you view the stain patches through ALL 5 lighting situations. Never, ever pick a stain colour without a coat of your finish (in your gloss level) over top. That means you MUST HAVE a coat of finish applied to the samples BEFORE you choose.
Be prepared to ask for a custom mix.Īnd to stay away from orange all together you MUST WORK with a water based polyurethane. Dark walnut might pull a bit to reddy-orange (browns are made up of reds and oranges and blues, etc). It can go down VERY dark (so dark it looks like black paint). It is done all the time (by skilled refinishers). The green base of Jacobean is used (50:50 or 25:75) to get rid of the red AND to darken a colour. Jacobean is often used to create a mix of colour. Just like in the make-up industry, floor stains use GREEN based stains to 'hide' or cover red tinges. It looks like you already have a medium stain (?Provincial?) on there so you are aware it will be lighter than any of the options you are looking at.īecause you want to get away from 'red/orange' tones (as seen in your photo), I HIGHLY recommend you work with the Jacobean side of things.
