For a start it depends on the tannin levels in the oak, and some oak is actually fairly low in tannic acid (by the standards of oak) so isn't particularly prone to it. But the main thing is the staining occurs with iron in the presence of water. If your wood is well dried, the norm for most hardwoods these days and particularly so in America, and will spend its life in a typical domestic setting (again esp. in the US) there's almost no potential for iron staining to occur. | |
