I'm working on refinishing the wood on a Taurus .22 rifle. I stained the wood with one of the Birchwood Casey gun stock refinishing kits, but it came out too dark and looked like crap. I need to start over. The stain is water based. I've used Easy Off oven cleaner on the wood and it took some of the stain off, but there is still a lot left. Is there a better way, or should I just keep applying the Easy Off?
