STEP 2- Stain Color

Choosing the stain color for your wood is an important choice. Think about the following:

• Does it need to match something?
• Do you want your paint colors to POP?
• What paint colors will show on the sign that I want.

Things you may want to know:

• Grey can come from really light to really dark. Varies based on how wood absorbs the stain. Part of using a natural product.
• Honey maple can have dark knot holes. Colors really pop off this color.
• Red mahogany can have difficulty when you want to use some red colors.
• Aged oak has dark and lighter colored spots. 
• Espresso is dark brown. Any dark color will have trouble showing on this.
• Ebony/black can also vary from light black to solid black. Any dark color will have trouble showing.
