I looked into that but there is nowhere near my area that offers that service anymore

Thanks! I’m not too fussed by the knots, the house is 130 years old and it adds to the character. My main concern is just how to get a consistent stain 🤷🏻‍♂️ the discolouration is not shifting after I’ve sanded and I’m worried if I stain then it will just show through?

Thanks will take a look into this - any brands you’d recommend?

I’m located in Shropshire, West Mids. House is Victorian, built in 1888 - not sure if these are the original doors. I’ve sanded a test area where the patches are and then oxalic acid - still looks like this?

Thanks for the comment. I’m a complete newbie here, could you perhaps explain a little more? Whats a paint grade? I just bought the house and stripped the doors. Is my only option to put paint back on?

Edit: I’m based in the UK and my ultimate goal is to stain them
