Granddaughter wants the bed I am building her to be red. I'd rather
stain than paint. Any recommendations on getting to red using an
oil-based stain? The material is two-bys in decent construction
grade.

If you want something that's kinda more paint than stain, while still being
stain, Home Depot has a Behr deck stain that leaves the wood an almost
opaque red. It holds up very well in deck usage, but I can't say if it
would be appropriate for this application.
