The wood is still porous... you just need to use a water based stain and do several coats (much of the first and second coat of water based lacquers are absorbed into the wood and don't cover the surface, which leads me to believe the water based stains would do the same)FghtinIrshNvrDi said:I can just imagine... Using that fine of sand paper and the stain just beading off of the wood... lol...
