I'm currently renovating my dining table which I bought 15 years ago. The finish has worn off in places around the table top and there's allot of pen marks around the top. My plan right now is to sand the table top with 80 grit to remove the old finish. Then go other again with 100 grit and finally with a 220 grit to prep for the new finish. What type of finish can I use to match the existing one? I'm not sure what type of wood and finish is being used.

I'd to for some sprit stain. Chestnut's golden oak would look good. Then soak it in Danish oil
Will that be the same as what's here? Because I'm only doing the top so I need to match it to the rest of the table.
This looks like clear oil based poly. No stain.
There's quite a bit of difference in color with the finish and the underlying wood.
well it´s hard to look at the picture. but I@d think you could match it with spirit stain and some thinner.
