I want to stain my wood floors...I want them a cool brown with grey undertones. Can you recommend a stain color?

I highly recommend having your wood floor professional come in and do samples in a hidden area. Stains will appear different on different species. Also, you'll find that your specialist will have certain brands they work with.

The top coat also need to be put on. It will change the color of the stain.

The species of your floor and the cut of the planks will all help a flooring professional determine which stains to mix in what way. You might have brazilian cherry (can be purple). We wouldn't know that. A stain that works well on white oak won't work on brazilian cherry. For this reason, you will need to work with a professional hardwood flooring installer/refinisher. They will have all the tools to offer up samples that you would choose from (samples of colour should be applied to your own floor).

Take a look at Rubio Monocoat - they are zero VOC natural oils and are available in many colors (one step finish) and have "pre-color" water based stains as well!
