StainingMessage: Hi I would like to know how to stain maple veneer core plywood so as to avoid a blotchy finish. Is there a pretreatment or would I be better using a gel stain? If gel is better does Circa 1850 have gel stains? Thanks Pat. |

RE: Staining Message: Maple (whether solid or veneer) is very difficult to stain. It is very dense so stains do not penetrate well, and there is really no 3-dimensional grain definition. The best solution is to either use a gel stain or better yet, a gelled varnish stain (such as Circa 1850 Stain'n Varnish) |
