Staining An Oiled Fretboard


Recommended Posts

I accidentally posted this in the "Inlays and Finishing Tutorials & Reference", so I'm posting it here too. Please, delete the other thread in IFTR.

I'd like to know if there is a way to stain a heavily oiled fretboard using a water-based stain.

It is a rosewood fretboard and it has been recently oiled with linseed/lemon oil.

I want to make it look like it was an ebony fretboard, i.e., I wanna make it black.

Thanks!
