The f9) unique resin binder formulations and products include porosity-promoting agents that result in the resin binder having a porous surface capable of being stained with a wood stain or other colorant, while still having the favorable properties of traditional laminate products. 471' N The methods of the invention produce a laminate wood or wood product that can be stained with a variety of stains and colorants after 11 manufacturing to suit the individual builder's or homeowner's preference.  The stainable laminate products may include a decorative =    paper layer sandwiched between a backing layer and a resin binder layer embedded with a porosity agent, such as, silica, wax, mica, <T calcium carbonate, silane, kaolin clay, ciystalline silica, corn starch, feldspar, talc, or combinations thereof.
