I’m currently recapping this National NC/57. This has a scratch on the case. I guess I can sand this out and just do a small touchup.

Not only is the paint chipped out but it has dent that will need to be pushed, or pounded out. The set must have been dropped, and landed on the band switch knob, hopefully pushing the knob back, and denting the cabinet is the extent of the damage.
