Dave H Posted June 14, 2021 Report Share Posted June 14, 2021 I'm just glad the question isn't, will you put lotion on my back please! Not that there's anything wrong with that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardA Posted June 15, 2021 Report Share Posted June 15, 2021 If you use the Cherry Danish blend, I'd do it after. It'll darken nicely 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coop Posted June 15, 2021 Report Share Posted June 15, 2021 From past experience, I think you would have to cover the piece with a packing quilt and put it in a closet to slow down the process! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chestnut Posted June 15, 2021 Report Share Posted June 15, 2021 Typically between 2nd breakfast and brunch. Also in the evening at least 2 hours before the mosquitoes wake. It'll go faster with out finish on, with finish on it's protected in the event it gets bombed by passing birds. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhighlander Posted June 16, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2021 Well, I took my 2 little cherry wall brackets to work, and left them in full sun in my truck bed all day. I couldn't tell a bit if difference, so I brought them home and slathered them in "black cherry" stain. The pigment does muddy the grain a bit, but dark is dark. Probably no one will even notice or care that the pieces are cherry, anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
