Hello Everyone,
Looking for help from experts on this forum. I am sharing photo of cabinet that I have. They are Maple wood and color is Amber (as per the manufacturer).
After 4 years of gentle use there is flaking off stain (though it looks like lacquer or something else) from some of the cabinet panel. I am planning to refinish them to save wood. Attaching picture for reference.
Few question I have in mind for guidance are as follows.
- Would someone be able to judge what kind of finish does these cabinet have (stain, lacquer or something else ?)
- I would like to re-finish them, so tried matching Stain by Bengamin more people and finish is not quite same. I think it was spray painted so I tried spraying stain as well which looks similar but still not satisfied.
- I am also open would like to darken the color as well. so trying to find what I can paint on top without sanding (if possible)
Will greatly appreciate if anyone can guide and help.
