Red oak boards being used as shelves. Was too wet and cold to
sand, stain and poly them so my husband put them up unfinished.
Well he spilled his beer on one. Will sanding be enough or will
the spot rear its ugly head when I get to stain and poly it in the
spring?

Wipe *all* of the boards down with beer. Then it won't really
matter -- everything will look the same in the end.


That's the best idea yet, but you probably just gave Mike a heart
attack by suggesting someone use beer in that manor!


Well, I don't know. We may have accidentally stumbled upon a decent
use for Bud lite. :-)


Not freakin' likely...
