Try using oxalic acid, also called wood bleach, on the water damaged area before attempting to stain the wood. If that removes the stain, sand the surface, use a wood conditioner or a clear stain as a first coat, then apply the colored stain. Once that's dry, apply a clear polyurethane for interior use, or a spar varnish for exterior use.
The best way to stain bathroom floor cabinets is to first sand the wood. After that, apply the wood conditioner, then the stain and finally apply the finish.
It could look blotchy depending on the type of wood and if it's a colored stain.
For a seamless finish, apply the stain before assembling the furniture.
You can use a sponge applicator on a broom handle or extension

No, I have tried this and the end result you get is a very washed out blotchy stain that is very hard to apply. You can try bleaching the stain, and re-apply a stain that has a very close color that can mimic the stain you already have.
After. If you waterproof before staining, the stain won't make it to the wood to stain it.
I agree with Charles. I would also sand the piece of wood with the stain a bit then apply the darker stain.
the deck or porch will become darker and darker after every stain u put on
In order to re stain a wood floor you must sand off all the existing finish. DO NOT try to apply stain over an already finished floor. It will not take. You can easily re coat your floor with clear polyurthane.
Providing the wood is already free of any old finish, paint or dirt, apply the stain with a clean, dry cloth. If it's a large project apply the stain to small area at a time, using the wipe on, wipe off method - meaning after you wipe the stain on, going with the grain of the wood, use another cloth to wipe off any excess. Allow the stain to dry thoroughly. Once it has dried apply the finish with a short nap sponge roller for larger projects and a brush for the smaller jobs.
You can stain balsa wood.
