Can you stain pegboard?

Most any pegboard I've seen is 1/8" or1/4"tempered hardboard ('masonite') with holes which wouldnotallow any penetration of a stain. Non-tempered mightallowsome penetration, but because of the brown color willonlydarken. Another option is to leave natural brown and spray amatteclear finish on it.
