Black Stain for Bamboo

4 years ago

Hello! Which black stain did you use? Oil, water or Gel? And what finish, Lacquer or Poly?

I have a bamboo floor that I want to change color to dark/black (avoiding brown tones).

Hello, we did a few layers on this white oak floor. We did a heavy layer of black dye, followed by sealer, black gym floor paint, and three coats of polyurethane. Hope this helps!
