I've read through many of the posts here about cabinet restoration but haven't seen anything yet pertaining to shining up a natural (unpainted) bakelite cabinet. Can anyone share their experiences and recommendations about buffing out minor blemishes and restoring the luster? I assume that they did have some degree of luster to them, didn't they?

Thanks,
Jim
