Shoe polish!!....... sounds interesting. I guess it's worth a try.
I've got a number of honey colored stains which I've been using. I'll try getting the red oak.
I went to the store a little while ago and got some minwax wood conditioner and english chestnut stain.
The conditioner seems to be letting the stain go on much more evenly on the pine I'm using. This stain is darker too so maybe that will help.
Thanks
