Matching new and old red oak floors

2 years ago

I am renovating my kitchen and need to add flooring in a few areas that were previously covered by cabinetry. My whole house has original red oak flooring. I purchased new red out flooring to match but it is significantly lighter than the old flooring due to aging/yellowing. Any advice on how to get a closer match? I know it will not be perfect but would like it to be less noticeable if possible! See picture for new and old flooring comparison. New flooring (lighter) has two coats of oil based polyurethane applied
