This may be a difficult question, but due to some previous damage (before I obtained this set), I have re-veneered the top of a HM2 using some light oak veneer I had in the garage. Has anyone any thoughts on which colour dye I should use to try and match the rest of the cabinet as the light oak veneer is too light. This is the version with the very high glossy finish so I propose to use polyurethane varnish.

cheers
