I agree with Charles. I would also sand the piece of wood with the stain a bit then apply the darker stain.
You can stain balsa wood.
Wood stain is abosorbed into the wood, so the wood takes on the color of the stain. This is why the features of the wood are still visible, unlike with paint.
You estimate how long it's going to take you, how much your materials cost, how much per hour you are going to charge, and add it all up.
the deck or porch will become darker and darker after every stain u put on

Wood stain is for sealing and emphasising the natural colour of wood

To remove solid wood stain from pressure-treated wood, you can sand the stained area with coarse sandpaper to strip off the stain. Alternatively, you can use a wood stain remover or stripper following the manufacturer's instructions. After removing the stain, clean the wood surface thoroughly and allow it to dry before refinishing.
Pine is the hardest wood to stain becuase it absorbs the stain to erratically. anonymous@oola.com
It could look blotchy depending on the type of wood and if it's a colored stain.
It depends very much on the material you are painting. On raw wood,stain is usually better.
Wood is wood.
No Stain is applied to wood before any sort of sealer stain enhances the color of wood to bring out grain different densities of wood absorb the stain at different rates paint, varnish, lacquer seal out water after a stain is applied. Lately stain is hard to find the one step idea stain,sealer, clearcoat all in one is the norm the results are so much inferior i have no idea how they can sell that junk. perhaps that is why you can find so much nice furniture on trash day
