Spalted wood stain
Does anyone know if it's possible to eliminate the stain from
spalting? I'm working with some very slightly spalted quilted maple (I didn't notice the slight stains when I purchased it), but it's become bothersome as I've worked with it. I've tried chlorine bleach, but it doesn't seem to have any effect. I don't think oxalic acid will do it (not a metal stain) either. Suggestions appreciated... Cliff |

Evidently it is true spalting and not a metallic stain. Cliff |
