I'm starting work on the finish of 2 cabinets. One is a Philco 650 and the other is a 1940 Farnsworth. The finish on the Farnsworth has flaked off slightly in some spots and heavily in others (see pics). I have been reading this forum and have not yet run across a discussion on how to proceed in either case. Will I have to strip the finish or is there a way to repair? The 650 has a few areas near the bottom that are slightly flaked off.

Absolutely no one is going to reverse engineer that circuit. Even the iron core is missing.RodB — 10:37 AM
