I have since gotten the cabinet stained and toned. I saw a video online of another guy renovating a 46-480, and he used the toner similarly to the way I have with this cabinet. I’ll admit that it turned out darker than I envisioned, but the result is a very rich and unique stain. What do you all think? It’s obviously much darker than the original, but is it too dark?
