Steve,


I know Kevin is probably right on this, but I don't want my OCD getting the best of me. It's hard to find a stopping point when I go to improve on the finish of a set, especially photo finish. As you all know, my solution to bad PF last time was to strip it all off and start over with real veneer (the CTC-7 Anderson). If I touch this one up would I simply go for matching the color of the finish nearby, so the wood showing from under it isn't quite so visible? I've never really seen an attempt at PF 'repair', so it's hard to know what direction to take.
