General Finishes Design Center
Take a look at this link.
I used some of their water based dye stain on a project similar to yours.
Dark blue base coat. Blended the coats in to balance out the grain contrasts.
I think I sprayed a thin clear shellac before adding a gray milk paint. The milk paint was wiped off quickly so that it would only sit in the deeper grain that hadn't completely filled with the shellac.
Finished it off with the clear shellac sealer.

Damn it man!
$50 too late.
But while I have you all here, a side note.
What's a good respirator for a decent price? The pre-stain is no fricking joke. I'm in an open garage with a breeze and that shite ran me out of there.
