@wokka No didnt stain black. Made up a green colourtone mix to get it as close to a forest green as I could and gave it a good 3 continuous coats of green. Added a bit of black to the mix and did a darker burst around the edges over the top. When it dried i gave it a really good steel wooling and blended the burst ( can hardly see it now at all) then made up another green mix and probably coated another 4-5 times until it didnt seem to take any more colour. Using Isophropinal alcohol as the base and seems to get more colour in. Also was a nice piece of Ash.
