Over the years I've run into problems with blotching when I dyed wooden gunstocks. Never really found a product or a home made mixture that reduced blotching acceptably. But now I have. I'm making a wooden toy box for a niece and it's in Hard Maple. I had planned to stain it a dark walnut with red highlights, but I have to shamefully admit that I was not aware how badly the Hard Maple blotches. All that wood I bought, and this wasn't going to work. I tried some test stains, and all were horrible. I'm on a woodworking forum, so I went there for help, and found it. A fellow named Charles Neil makes and sells a material for blotch control. I bought some. Thank the good Lord that it actually works. I was so desperate that I even read the directions.
Charles Neil, and he has a website. No, I don't work with him, am not married to his sister, and have never met the guy.
For a gunstock or two or three, you won't need a lot of this liquid.
