Help refinishing a 42-1008

I own a 42-1008 and need to restore the finish. There are a few scratches and a small section of the top has been damaged by water. I would like to not refinish the whole piece. Is this possible? What is the finish? Varnish? As I have just found this site and I come unprepared. I shall post photos to show the damage.

Often restuffed. If a twistlock, Hayseed Hamfest makes modern replacements. morzh — 09:18 PM
