DO NOT use an oil-based stain, such as Minwax. The oil will penetrate the wood and prevent the epoxy from curing. Analine dyes are water-based, and will penetrate the wood deeply, leaving no residue.

The epoxy has to penetrate the surface of the wood. Painting the wood before before completing the build will not work.
