Hello,
After glueing a cracked tote from a Stanley 10 I thought a light sanding and oiling would be worth while. When sanding bright pink saw dust was evident, I assume this is the remaining cherry stain applied to the beech tote.
No amount of sanding will remove this deep stain or a couple of black spots also on the tote. Steel wool & turps dont work either.
Any suggestions on how to remove it? Or do I simply stain with a darker colour & finish by rubbing oil or wax into it?
Suggestions much appreciated,
Regards, Bill
