Has anyone out there used a good color analyzer app to match existing dyed furniture?
I'm completing my first project of this year, dining table for my wife, and I want to "somewhat match" the existing furniture - a buffet (which was store bought). The match doesn't need to be exact, just reasonably close. This new build is hard maple as is the buffet. I say the buffet is like natural cherry, the boss says no!
I downloaded a free app - Color Grab, but without any developer instructions, I don't know what to do with the photo taken. It did tell me the color was "brown with orange", guess I could experiment with mixing brown dye with orange a little at a time & see what happens.
I was hoping to get a more definite answer at to percentages of each color, possibly R G B, or some variation thereof. I will be using a water based dye, TransTint, TransFast, or something from Moser or Lockwood.
Any suggestions or advise will be most appreciated,
Thanks
