    Has anyone come across a good woodstain or varnish that they have used on pine that comes up a fairly good colour match for walnut. I have a medium walnut floor and want to stain the steps, handrail and newel posts on the stairs and paint the rest of it off white. Any advice would be really welcome, have tried the Johnson Walnut but its coming out just very glossy brown.

    i have used rustins wood dye (walnut) on pine skirtings as i was putting down a walnut floor and i was very happy with result, i put it on with a paint brush left is sit for a minute or two then wiped it off with a soft cloth. if you find its not dark enough for you apply another coat, you can but rustins in small tins so you can try it on a scrap piece of pine.
    hope this helps.
