Since the 16B was never a blonde, this is gonna require a bit of color re-applied and perhaps some lacquer..

Anyone near me up to the task?  Ive never done any cabinet/wood work and fear i might make it worse..

The cabinet is solid, and the veneer seems to be intact, its just a bit pale..

What are my options??

Thanks...

Toning lacquer, not stain...

How hard could it be??
Fortunately the lacquer based finishes are pretty easy to remove (a rag and lacquer thinner) if you don't like the results.
Cost?
For materials about 50-$75 for stripper, grain filler, sanding sealer, toner,clear coat, masking tape, sandpaper, lacquer thinner, and mineral spirits.

No, no. What I meant was that you should use toning lacquer instead of stain. You can never achieve the original factory appearance with stains as you can with proper application of toning lacquer.

Terry said it better than I did, in post #4 above.
