Re: Overnight Sensation knock down kit. With PPG clear
Wow, those look pretty good. I wouldn't feel bad about how those came out at all!
I've had issues with stain getting blotchy a few times myself. Some folks here turned me on to some stuff called 'pre-stain wood conditioner' which goes on before the stain. It penetrates the wood and prevents most blotchyness. Some woods like pine especially get blotchy when stained, impossible to even out, that stuff helps. An example: http://www.homedepot.com/p/Minwax-1-...3#.UnwV0uIv-M8
I have a pair of the same OS flat pack kit in my basement that I am building for my wife's niece. I was going to veneer, but now you have me thinking. I don't think I could get such a nice finish, though. Man, those look nice! Great work.
