hello folks,

(my first post was in the wrong forum ..oops)

I have a completely gutted Philco 48-1050 cabinet that I plan to use as a electronics project case
I will be using a old lcd where the tube was .. and build it to be a media server .. I didnt gut this chassis
i purchased it at a garage sale.. i would however like to fix some finish damage seems someone spilled something on the top that has dissolved some of the lacquer .. I am thinking of stripping and re lacquering the top but not sure what product to use.

I also would like to build a shelving unit that matches the color and finish of the television cabinet
not sure what color stain to use or what kind of wood veneer is on the tv (mahogany ?)
