Am going to get either an Oak or Pitch Pine floor which I want to 'dye' or 'stain' to a dark oak color (or close to that), then varnish. Not sure which material would be better given it will have a reasonable amount of traffic and possibly water spillage ( hence varnish finish rather than wax ). would prefer pitch pine but am not sure how well it takes a dye or stain. Thoughts???
