I am building an entertainment center into the wall and while storing the
cut pieces in the room where it is being built, my daughter had an accident
and spilt some sour cream dip onto the Oak veneer ply, I hadn't noticed it
for about 2 days and it sunk into and spread out into the veneer now I have
an oil stain about the size of a 2.5" circle in the veneer. I will be using
"Minwax, Ebony, oil based stained rubbed in with 2 coats. 4 coats Durathane.
The question is there a way to remove the stain? Will the stain show through
after the finish is applied? As for now I will be hiding this piece on the
bottom of the unit. Any advice will be appreciated. Thanks for reading about
my plight.

Try a solvent (like acetone) to try and remove the soaked in
grease/oil
John
If I had to guess, it WOULD show thru OR prevent the finish from
adhering well over that area

Before you get too fancy with cures duplicate the stain on some scrap and
then put the stain on. Chances are good that it'll be a non issue with two
coats of ebony stain.
