[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We refinished and used Duraseal dark grey and the floors look amazing. This was part of a big renovation removing the colonial look of our 90s house, now the style is more updated/transitional. It’s key to test multiple different stains and when you narrow it down do 2-3 in another area. Agree- don’t be rushed! Light stains do not work as well on red oak as it’s impossible to get rid of that pink/red tones. Darker helps a lot to saturate. I wish red oak was tougher. We get dings and dents so easily.[/quote] You can get rid of the red/pink tone. There is a poly that has a bleach in it that removes the red/pink color. We used it and our floors look amazing! If you use an oil-based clear, you will get the red/pink color. [/quote]
