Thanks Porkchop. I followed this tutorial on the painjob
Tutorial: How to make faux wood grain with Mohawk brand wood stain - YouTube. I used Krylon flat-black for my base, a CIL laytex for the grain in Macadamia White, Krylon Redwood wood stain, and a Krylon acrylic clear coat with satin finish. I will warn you though that you should give the stain AT LEAST 24 hours to set each time you apply it.
