Showerthought: I tried to stain my deck a dark walnut color and it turned out purple.

The can said it was for pressure-treated wood, but I guess the old pine reacted weird... anyone know a good fix for this?

Man, why does every home improvement project have a secret color wheel?

That purple deck is a real surprise. Did you test it on a scrap piece first, or did you just go for it like @ryanc71 said?

My buddy Dave just painted his whole fence this wild orange without testing it first.

Did Dave get a good deal on that orange paint or something? I feel for the guy, that's a bold move without testing a small spot first. Hope he's ready for some strong opinions from the neighbors.
