Chestnut OVER T.O. or T.O over Chestnut????

[metalhead357]

Dang nabbit - I cant find what I'm looking for!

I remember reading a blurb that Chestnut ridge stain MAY be used over top of Tung Oil and/or Boiled Linseed Oil??????????

Any major difference between the two apps? I'd finnaly got off my rear and got some decent stain other than minwax, and would really like it if I didn't have to strip the Tung off the stock.....It took 3 days and tooooo many coats to count!!!!!!!!

Anyone try either of these routes? and Whats the best way to offset the red in the stain? Will R.I.T. dye work????????????/

I used it on my garand before applying danish tung oil and it came out very nice.
