I scratched a few boards on my hardwood floor, and matched the stain color, but the finish is too clear compared to the original. I think a bit of cloudiness within another coat of polyurethane would help.
I gotcha.. honestly.. I'd grab a few pieces of scrap wood and apply the stain and then separate out some of the poly and add various things to it to get a desired color.
Also as queer as it may sound..Pinterest probably has a solution as to how to achieve the desired color.
But like others have said..Humidity may be you best option. thats why it is hazy looking to begin with.

That's what I'm doing now. I added some milky-looking mineral spirits to some polyurethane as a test, and just applied that to a test board.
By the way... the fumes are giving me a headache despite adequate ventilation. I worry what's happening to little Maggie's brain.
