I want to add a bit of a reddish mahogany tint to my Ironwood Walnut stocks. The stocks were already finished when I got this AK so I'm not sure what the previous owner used, but it appears to be just walnut stain over walnut wood with either no sealer or maybe a coat or 2 of tung oil.
I was wondering if there is any way I could tint the finish slightly reddish without stripping the wood, and then sealing the stocks to a semi-gloss finish? I was thinking maybe a wood dye.
Hopefully the gun stock gurus are gonna chime in. I'm looking for mild darkish Russian Red color.
