Could anyone show/tell me the shade difference between Merit Oak and regular Oak stain. I know Merit is supposed to be darker but how much?? I was at Minwax.com but could not find "merit". I have never heard of that shade.

Thanks,

Gia, probably the best you can do is to take a peice of scrap wood to the store. Let them brush on a sample of each.
