Default Darkening finish on store-bought cabinet door

I have a kitchen cabinet with 2 doors, one obviously darker than the
other. Is there a way to darken the light oak finish on the lighter
door, without removing the factory finish?
I have read about applying a tinted polyurethene or a gel stain over
the original finish. Has anyone successfully tried this?
Also, a long time ago I worked at a furniture store where I saw the
touch-up guy completely darken an oak pedestal with some kind of toner
spray.
If anybody has any info on any of these or other ideas, I would
appreciate it.
