I would not only use the conditioners, but I would also go with a RIT brown dye first as a base and then apply my stain to get a more uniform look.

I'm new, so hi. I am building a set of bookshelves that will be attached to3/4 plywood wall.<br />
<br />
I Have stained all the pieces before installation. I have many texture differences in the various pine pieces. I used a pre stain conditioner before staining. Everything came out just right. I am using Pittsburgh Paints products. Min-wax would not blend a custom stain for me.<br />

Hey just another little tid bit- you also might want to look at Gel stains as they sit more on the surface of the wood. They are much for forgiving than standard oil stains. The Gel stains have given me Great results. Not to completely confuse you but another great finish that i love is made by Bri Wax. It stains and protects the wood as well. I don't recommend this for anything that is going to take a crazy beating but it is very simple to apply like rubbing shoe polish on and it has a very…

I always use the pre-stain conditioner on pine. Here are some cabinets I made with pine. I sanded, applied pre-stain conditioner, then stained. I actually used two stains, because the first was too red for my taste. I later applied a dark walnut stain over the red. To finish it off, I applies four or five coats of Spar varnish. This is going to be used in a camping trailer and will be semi-exposed to the outdoors. I am happy with the results.<br />

Once you sand the pine down to where you want it you are all set to stain (I recommend going to at least a 220 grit finish). An easy way to go is with a Minwax stain / poly blend it will stain the wood and protect it at the same time. Read the directions on the can but basically you put on a coat, let it dry, rub the whole thing down with 000 steel wool , clean it off good to get the steel wool dust off of it, and put on a second coat. Continue with coats like this until you are satisfied (I…
