Strip off the old clear coat finish with either a liquid or gel stripper. Clean the surface with alcohol. Once dry, try a small amount of the new, darker stain on an inconspicuous area to check for proper color. Once determined, apply the new stain (preferably an oil-based stain). When the stain is thoroughly dry (1-2 days), apply several coats of clear finish. Let dry and you're done.
