What wood is that and what finish did you use?

The plywood is birch and the trim is maple. I used Minwax ebony stain and oil-based Varithane. I sanded the living fuck out of it, from 100 grit down to 400, put on a Native American headdress, danced around it with the peace pipe, sanded it again, threatened fire and brimstone and still got that blotchiness. Then I said: "What the fuck, it's just going to get all covered in spent primer dust" then took two shots of cheap tequila and declared it perfect.


I'll give her a triple load of fabric softener...
