We ve been wanting to do a wood stain study for years now and in my head i wanted to do every type of wood with about 20 different stains each but with limited resources not to mention space we settled on 5 popular species of wood commonly used by diyers with 6 different stains.
Chestnut vs walnut wood color.
If you ve never heard of special walnut you won t forget it now.
Are they the same or similar enough that i should return the new belt.
I tend to view special walnut as a lighter brown stain.
Walnut stain colors category 1 limed oak fc 108 natural.
Recently i ordered a new pair of strands in walnut and also ordered the matching walnut belt.
Chestnut wood doesn t refer to wood from a single tree but rather from a family of trees.
Harvest fc 107 almond fc 42000 sealy.
On that note red brown shaded stains like walnut and chestnut have a very warming homey effect in a home and are a very safe bet.
Lighter shades like cherry and golden oak will accent the natural grains and beauty of a floor while still giving it some depth and color.
Chestnut fc 104 almond fc 42000 sealy fc 44938 golden pecan fc 41610 hoosier special.
You can see that this stain consistently pulls a brown hue with the exception of the red oak for obvious reasons.
