In Response To: Great Ref / Stains and Epoxy (Lloyd E. Peterson)

I used the Minwax Vermont Maple water based stain on my North Sea and it worked great. No epoxy problems whatsoever. Just one thing - before staining, wet the wood down with a damp cloth and let dry to raise the grain and then sand. Then stain. Have fun!
