Thank you SO much for this video
You are so very welcome, thought it would be useful since I was looking for a video like this before I made my desk.
Special Thanks for this very helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
Very nice, I wanted to see the difference between varathane and minwax red mahogany
Were is the picture? And awesome video. Very informative! New subsciber on that presentation
Help I stained a table and it’s way to dark. Can I put a white wash over the stain?
Thank you so much! I'm building a tabletop with rubber wood since it's what I got. Will these stains look around the same?
I'm no wood expert but I would say as long as the rubber wood you're using is a very light color, it will be very similar
You are awesome
Much Appreciated :)
Could you do a video highlighting the finished color of your desk?

Hi i have a question when you do 2 finish with the minwax poly then the arm and seal, do it matter if they are satin or gloss? will you have the same result if you choose different minwax poly?
the only result you'll see is the top layer. I did two coats minwax gloss and one coat arm r seal satin on my desk
Did you apply a pre-stain conditioner before staining the birch with the sundry stains? If you didn't, this could alter the final stain look for these stains.
I did apply a wood conditioner, yes.
Thank you for doing this video!!
I was originally going to use provincial for staining my birch butcher block to use as a desktop, but after seeing this video, the final result is not what I was expecting, because most videos showing provincial are not staining on birch.
Now I'm back to square one trying to decide which stain to use.
The other important thing that I am noticing is that the color on the box of the stain, is not the color on the wood. Originally, I had decided against honey because the color on the box was so dark. However, in your video, the honey is not dark at all but rather a pleasing light color.
@@RT-jp9me Yes but also remember you can deepen/darken the color by applying two or three coats of the stain
@@RT-jp9me Dark Walnut is a really safe bet (matches everything), but I would go with one of the reds if you want your desk to pop
I'm having trouble picking between the Varathane Honey and Varathane Red Mahogany. Any advice?
Do your own A-B test on spare piece of wood, always different seeing it in person in the room it will be in. Also, you can get a darker color by putting two coats.
@@DavidBlodgett I don't want to spend double to buy both. I guess I'll just go with honey and use two coats.
I like lighter colors, the more natural looking Honey color. Minwax Cherry looks good also (not shown).
I almost went with the Honey Actually, super nice
How much is needed for a table top?
I was able to stain mine which is 30"x72" with one 8oz container
@@DavidBlodgett awesome. Mine is 25x60 so I should be all set with 8 oz
@@whatisiswhatable That should be fine, even with two coats. Let me know how it goes
Not to be picky but its Espresso 😂
you mean expresso 😅
Pro-vin-shal, not pro-vin-cil
Ja-Co-bee-an, not jacko-bean
Lol
ESPRESSO not expresso
Provincheeealll not provinsal
*It's not leviOsa it's levioSA*
WHO cares
literally NO ONE
Grammar police 👮♀️ 😂. Was thinking the same thing though lol
@@ewanhansen9823 Raise the bar, don't lower it
@@ewanhansen9823 Anyone who has the slightest care for the English language. It's a few minutes of work to get it right.
What is a Jaco-bean, anyway? Sound unappetizing.
To those English grammar. Wtf!! I failed my esl class 20 years ago. I thought we were in a woodworking class. Not an English class!! Here we go again. I will fail both classes.
