Baltic Birch stain

[eugene]

I have tried to stain Baltic Birch plywood but it always looks dull and ugly. Any suggestions on how to get a decent look?

I have used stain and poly with ok results. I've started using Danish oil for almost everything now. If I want a shine, then I spray with clear laquer.

Try using a shellac sealer first it will help clear up the blotchiness of the BB ply.
