The clear on the cabinet would have been a gloss nitrocellulos lacquer and any color would have likely come from a toning lacquer. Some folks are skilled enough to be able to strip just the top, re-tone and then spray on new clear lacquer and make it look like it should. I'm not one of those guys, the top would likely look different than the bottom. If you'd like to start a thread on cabinet restoration for just the top of your cabinet, start it up in the "Cabinet Restoration" section. Show some pictures so folks can offer advice. You may decide to just leave it as is or use the "Restore a finish" approach. That can help make it look a little better but does not add new lacquer where it is missing. Just my 2 cents.

Cheers,
Bob
