I do not like staining closet doors! I detest drippy, runny stain that splatters all over my new laminate floors, bookshelves and yarn. It doesn't look too good splattered across the closet door either. I feel like I've wasted a good part of the day ruining a perfectly good closet door. Now I understand why you can also buy them painted a primed white. I wonder what a professional stainer would charge. Dam! I'm chewing my fingers again.
