Whitewash or pickle it using half paint and half water. Rough up the bare wood first with sandpaper and a wire brush.... then paint on your solution and rub off with an old rag.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AZl_RVdpFaU you can also use a pale grey or white paintHelpful Reply -

Take a cup of white or cider vinegar and drop a steel wool pad into the vinegar. the solution will turn a gray color and apply to the wood, just like stain, the more you apply, the darker it will get.Helpful Reply -
