Alright everyone, this is part two of my bathroom countertop adventure. (If you haven't read the first part you can do that HERE.) When I left y'all we had successfully made a counter out of maple wood flooring, which happens to be particularly hard to stain. Here was my first attempt... It looked terrible and Adam vetoed it right away. And that's saying something because he never vetoes things, he usually just lets me gush about weird new ideas that my brain comes up with and then tries his best to make them happen. So we sanded off the terrible stain job (twice, cause I tried to stain it again) and then we just sealed the natural maple with tung oil. But, I hated it. So here I am, still trying to make a maple countertop dark and NOT have it look like poo. I spent some time googing for answers and come across a lot of different ways to successfully stain maple. But most of these ways used tools I don't have (sprayers) and supplies I didn't want to buy (dyes), so I decided to just branch out on my own and experiment. I had heard of pre-stain before but had never used it. We talked about using it when we built our farmhouse table but got lazy and just....didn't. So I figured I'd try my luck with it on this project... after all, I certainly couldn't make it any worse.
