Quote:I started with "perfect brown" but had to go to "Brown Mahogany" due to some filling of dents etc that were showing through.
Yes, I think this color looks good and should make the set look nice overall even if it is not the original color scheme.
Just for future reference if you have some dents to deal with try steaming them out with a damp rag and an old clothes iron or even a soldering iron. You will be surprised how well it works and it makes many dents just about invisible.
