Photos of damaged 42-1008
#3

Bill's tips are good. Since it doesnt have big patches of lacquer missing.. I'd do the stain touch up like he said, but rather than spray lacquer over, you may get a nice finish by giving it a light rub down with Maguire's Mirror Glaze --- or such. You can get this at any auto parts store like AutoZone or whatever. Its used to take out small scratchs in automotive paint, but works nice on wood. Later tonight I'll post a picture of a Edison machine that I did the stain/Maguires treatment to....... you can go from there.

take care,
jerry.
