Two questions:
What is the escutcheon made of? I have seen two answers to this. One says it is gold painted plastic, the other that it is brass.
Second: These two pics show the worst damage on my cabiner. Heavy wear in certain places (like where the lid meets) and long term use damage to the top. Are these areas too badly damaged to try Howard's Restor-A-Finish? And, which color of Restor-A-Finish should I be using on this cabinet? I say Walnut or Dark Oak, my gf says even Cherry might be too dark.
