After hours of removing old paint and varnish, I am nearly ready to start the finishing process... So, should I paint the "colored" areas first and then stain? What color of stain? I have read "Golden Oak", but should it be darker like "Walnut"? Paint colors; any reccomendations? There were a gray, blue, orange, red and yellow? I will post picture when this one is finished! Thanks for the help, PTD [ Edited by: Psycho Tiki D 2010-06-19 18:58 ]
