I have a 30+ year old Danish wall unit made up of teak veneered particle board panels. In a recent move the veneer was rubbed through in an area about 3″ x 5″ and not easily concealed. I feel comfortable with inlaying some veneer to patch the panel. But not with getting the veneer to match the affects of 30+ years of light on the older original veneer. From searching the discussion board it appears that the reason for that is that ther isn’t a good way. Am I wrong { I sure hope so } any pointers will be appreciated.

Roy,
I haven't tried it myself, but I've read in FWW about putting cherry in direct sunlight for a day or two. Said to be the same as years of indoor indirect exposure. I'm thinking about trying this on my current project to match teak veneer (brown color) and freshly planed solid teak edging (lighter and greenish in places). Amber shellac has evened it somewhat, so I may not bother. Let us know if you try it!
