Alan - Holy Cow! Sounds like quite a hack job was done on your 116.

Yes, the finish on the front panel of mine is original, with original PHILCO decal.

I think I will do a "selective" refinish on this one; rub down the front panel to cut some of the roughness without losing the original finish completely, and spray with clear Deft to "renew" the look. The top, sides and trim will get new extra dark walnut toner followed by clear Deft.
