What happens here

After re-sanding and cleaning all surfaces, apply a darker wood stain to the cabinet frames using a rag. Ensure the application is even, and wipe off any excess to achieve the desired dark, consistent color. Allow this stain to dry completely. For the doors and drawers, apply a fresh coat of clear polyurethane in a satin finish, ensuring a smooth and even layer. Once all pieces are dry, carefully reattach the doors and drawers to their respective cabinet frames using the labeled hardware. This step will bring your two-tone kitchen cabinet project to its completed state, showcasing the contrast between the dark frames and the lighter, natural wood doors.

Goal: Complete the two-tone cabinet refinishing by applying final coats and reassembling.
