Custom Floor Stain Needed
looking for someone knowledgeable in creating a custom stain for our floors – we know what we want, just cant seem to come up with the mix ourselves. anyone have any recommendations of someone great who does either consultation or the work themselves ? we will be staining two different kinds of antique pine.

I would highly advise using tung oil on pine floors as it will harden inside the wood, thus contributing to the overall hardness of the finish. Sutherland welles is the best and the dye is added to the tung oil to create your own colour. As an alternative, stains can be mixed to match your sample at Abbott paint & varnish just like paint colors are matched at a home center. You will need to provide a raw sample of the wood that you want to stain as well as a sample color.
I have to say that we are doing some new floors (but made out of old pine) from Carlisle. they have amazing custom stains and then you finish the floor with tongue oil (sp?) I have to say that they are incredibly helpful on the phone. I would definitely check out their website and talk to them about their products.
If possible, avoid staining floors. One reason is because stain also seals and makes it more difficult for the finish to adhere to the wood. Stained floors tend to be more prone to scratching and abrasion.
Another reason is that if you don’t stain it’s much easier to do spot repairs later without the sandpaper tearing into the stain. This is especially true if you use a finish like Waterlox or shellac. But even with oil-modified urethane you still have the option of lightly screening the floor every few years and laying down another coat or two of urethane without having to sand down to bare wood again.

as an old painting contractor i can tell you that this is the toughest task to win. pine’s like a sponge and boards vary piece by piece. best advice i can give is to pick something much lighter than what you “think” you want and repeat the applications until you are happy with the results. or, take a piece to a benjamin-moore outlet and let them do some sample patches for you.
if those were my floors, i wouldn’t stain. i’d use a colored wax, apply, buff, reapply and rebuff. age, light will darken the floors no matter what you do up front.
