calmly ranted:

I'm trying to stain some cherry wood and just seem to get blochy results.
I'm using a gel stain which is doing much better than the thin stuff. I'm
putting it on evenly and wiping off the excess. Is it in the wood or the
stain or the application method? Any help would be appricated.

Use 4 ounces of India ink to thin the stain. Match the type, oil for
oil-based, water for water-borne stains. That should even it out to
a nice, dark, even color.
