    Just cause knowledge is fun. White oak isn't a species of tree, it's a grouping which I think is mainly based off the pores in the wood. You can buy red oak that looks white and white oak that looks red.

    #2. 1 Coat Sealer at 50% ,after that apply wiping stain white at 30%
    And Clear Coat 2 Coats on 10% Matte finish ✅
    3 Use a Water-based Clear Coat on Matte finish to avoid Ambers or Orange ✅

    Unseparated, I kind of like the red tones. But I see where you're coming from. You need a colorimeter to do it right. I wonder if they have those for stained wood. I have one for paint. Well, wait a minute. just white balance and run it through your post processor and measure the RGB or HSL. But no fair keeping it to yourself. Let me know!

    There's a place called Multifit Blades that makes sanding fingers that fit on oscillating sanders like yours. Instead of having a big triangle, most of which isn't doing much, you have a thumbprint sized pad and velcro-attached abrasive. I find it much easier to use, much faster, and also easier to control the direction of the sanding scratches. Get a whole bunch of those fingers though because they don't last long. I think sanding heat kills them, so I found it useful to keep the speed down, don't press, and maybe even swap pads (enough to make you cuss) to let them cool. Also, you can flip the paper around backwards (pointy end back) to get more use from one little piece of paper. Nothing would have made that sanding job fun or easy, but this might have helped a bit.
    Yeah, do a test piece, always, but there is another trick that I might have tried. The equivalent to post production color correction is toning, especially when your colors aren't saturated, as is the case here. In toning, you put color _over_ earlier finish coats. There is a chance you could have evened out that lacquer coat (if there were any bare spots) and _then_ applied a dye on top of it and thereby achieved your color correction. If it didn't work, you'd have to sand, which is what you were doing anyway. As a specific example, I'd have tried General Finishes green "dye stain" over the lacquer after waiting suitable time for that lacquer to be dry dry dry....maybe 72 hrs. Finish coats would be needed over that.
    Here's something you avoided...maybe it will make you feel better. If you put color onto raw oak, since oak is so porous, it can wick over and ooze out elsewhere hours after being applied giving a horrible uneven look. But it is down in the wood at that point and really really hard to get out because oak is so irregular in the surface. Same deal if you put the wrong color on.
    Everything looks beautiful in the end! Nice work. Not a pro, but hope it helps, and are all things I've done.

      For white oak to stay light in color, take a look at Osmo PolyX RAW/Natural (I think it's #3051) or Rubio Monocoat Natural (Oil + 2C I think is the way they label it). Oils tend to make lighter wood look more amber but both of these contain white and/or yellow pigment that offset the amber effect. Stay away from Osmo Clear and Rubio Pure. Both are great on Walnut, but as they contain no pigment, your white oak will dramatically amber. Ask me how I know :-)

    Rubio Monocoat is great for color matching and evening tones. We build a ton of vanities and our top request from interior designers is to match the flooring or other trim work. We’ve found that water popping the grain helps as well. Great video, thanks for sharing. Headed to the shop now to experiment with some green stain!

    @warmbeans6110 Год назад +1

    I'm getting ready to do a major project, stain and varnish and i'm wondering what i could use to stay as close to the original white oak color as possible/ Something that preferably not darken the grain too much.

    • @l.clevelandmajor9931
      @l.clevelandmajor9931 10 месяцев назад

      First you need to use a sealer finish that gets into the pores of the wood, It will fill those pores and keep your following finish from penetrating so deep. Since you want it to stay as white as possible, understand that white oak is not actually as white as it looks, so make sure your choice of finish is as clear as it can be. There are some clear varnishes that do not have any color in them, but because the wood does, there is not going to be a solution that will keep the color from getting darker. Adding green toner works best to preserve the whitish color, but it won't stop the wood from looking at least two or three shades darker than it does unfinished, even with the clearest solution of whatever finish you use. A good way to test what the wood color will be when it is finished is to use a damp rag to wet an area of the wood very lightly. The wet color will be close to what it will be when finished.

  • @l.clevelandmajor9931
    @l.clevelandmajor9931 10 месяцев назад

    Let me tell you why I've been so successful in my woodworking career. Research everything you want to do before you try to do it. That means materials, tools, designing, methods, procedures, and finishing. I never tackled anything that was new to me before doing my research, even after I knew a lot about woodworking already. New things are always coming up in my career, and knowing what I have to do before doing it is a very important step. Because of that, I seek out all I can find that is relevant to what I wish to do, and study it. Because I do that, I am successful 95% of the time or better. In the case of your stair bannisters, you should never install them before the surrounding area has been given its finish, and the same goes for cabinetry, window and door frames, etc. Look at your project and figure out what is supposed to be completed when! This is especially true when you are working with others to get a project done. No one likes having to do something over, or to have to fix something that got done too soon. So look at the job ahead, and ask yourself "How far along does the other parts of the job need to be, before I can safely get this part done?" In the case in which other workers are working on areas near what you are going to do, if their work will have an effect on what you must do, if you do your work first, let them get done before you do your work. Yes there may be times when your work might do something bad to their work, so find a way to do your work that has the least impact on what is already done. Also have ways to protect the work of other workers from being affected by your work. In the case of finishes, use shields wherever they are needed.
    I could tell you literally thousands of things about how to be successful in this type of work, but then I would be writing a whole series of books or more. So my advice is seek out the knowledge you need and study it. Knowing will save you lots of trouble.
