Hi GW, we're having our entire house's floors refinished and we have newly installed hardwood in the kitchen. He's going to try to match the existing to the new wood. I have a general question about stain color choices. I'd like to find a medium to light/medium brown without too much red or gold undertone.
Maybe like this? Actually saw this pic on a different GW forum and saved it bc I liked the floor color:

My flooring guy will Not mix 2 stains, otherwise I'd have liked 1/2 Bona Natural and 1/2 Bona Medium Brown. I think he's being lazy but he said it's too hard to get the color consistent for the whole house that way.
He will use Minwax stains too, which at least gives more choices than just Bona.
What color Minwax for med/light-med brown would you guys suggest? Anyone have either Natural or Medium Brown? Have any pics you could share? Thank you!
