Re: How to staining Blackbutt timber table?

Hi @Jeffalex,

 

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community, it is fantastic to have you with us.

 

If you haven't already, our suppliers for timber oils and stains, such as Cabots, Feast Watson and Sikkens, all provide a colour selector on their websites. You can select the base timber and get a visual representation of what they will look like with different products applied.

 

Check them out here - 

 

 

Colour selection is quite personal, so it would be best to check them out yourself, but stain options like Teak, Oak or Maple might be along the lines of what you are looking for. 


When you have selected your colour, check out How To Stain An Indoor Table for some guidance on the preparation and application process.

 

If you use a standalone stain, it would also be worth applying a clear coat varnish to lock the colour in.

 

Let me know what you think and if you have further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

 

Jacob
