Default Stain Keeps Weeping from Red Oak Table Top

I'm making a 40" by 60" table top made from red oak. After staining it
with a oil stain the stain keeps weeping back out of the oak. I keep
wiping it, but it still keeps coming out. This has been going on for
over a week. The oak is below a 6% moisture content. Is there a cure
for this?



It must be your stain. I would use thinner to clean off the excess, sand
again, and choose another brand stain.
Good brands are Bartley's, General Finishes, and Zar.
