I am not sure if I should use a water base or enamel paint, what colors come close to matching (although I will use a flat base) and I am hoping the varnish dulls the colors slightly. A little more sanding on the chair back and the stain will be going on. Hopefully sometime over the next few days? I did get a picture from Tiki Lee that shows the colors a little better. I will try to match based on that. PTD
