Re: Wood Bed Stain Colour?

There are a lot of ways to go with this. Stainless strips in hand pretty much dictate a brushed or polished finish as an easy out. If you already bought oak you might as well enjoy the grain. But a really dark body color stain like register's truck (the post29 link) is my favorite look. It would look great with strips of either finish in stainless or a black powder/paint. Too much black is a very subjective call. While all black paint is the most correct (pictured). An ebony stain and black strips will give a very subtle upgrade. Stainless of course ups the bling factor. Your choice but with a black truck I would be more concerned with too light a bed than a walk on the dark side.
