I've just stained the (new) pine floorboards in my flat and i'm not entirely happy with the colour. The stain was 'Rosewood' and i was hoping for a dark brown, but it's come out really quite orange.
Unfortunately, i didn't have time (for various reasons) to re-stain with a different colour, so I had to go ahead with putting varnish on to seal it. The varnish I've used is clear satin and obviously hasn't changed the colour.
I've pretty much accepted that i'll have to live with it that way, as I'm not going to sand the varnish off and re-stain, but was wondering if I could make a difference to the colour by buying a coloured varnish and putting that on at this stage.
I would be grateful of any suggestions
Thanks
