Wow some great stuff on your website.  Thanks for the info and that picture of the 645 is the best example I've seen.
Thought mine was all stripped down.  The area I test wiped is the only area currently sanded down.  Looks like an older refinish is on there now.  I know it was popular awhile back to take things all down to bear wood and then clear coat them somehow.  I have no idea what they used for a finish.  Looks like it will come off but it's going to be a lot of work to get into some of those small areas.  Maybe I can take it in and have it media blasted  Icon_lol. 
I'll be combing through the refinishing threads for sure.  Thanks for the input!
