Hey PTD, how's it going with this guy? Did you finally get all the old finish off? You may want to apply a furniture stripper on it to get all the old finish off since you have already started. From that point on you can probably just treat it like refinishing a piece of furniture. If the color underneath is a pretty even tone, you can restain it and apply whatever finish you want. If he's not too fragile, you can even bleach it to get the wood to a more even tone, and then apply the finish.
