We just had our hardwood floors refinished and the stain hasn’t come out as expected imo, so I’m hoping to check if there was a mismatch with my expectations or the final stain colour.

We were going for a warm mid-brown but hoping to avoid the orange of the prior stain on our floors. Our floors are white oak and the stain we picked was a 1:1 mix of special walnut and provincial by bona seal. IMO the floors came out much more orange/pink than I was expecting, which was particularly surprising to me because the floors are white oak and not red. But I’d love to hear others thoughts.
