Folks,
I offered to take a look a large oak door (6 panel with ornate molding
framing the panels) that someone (the owner) had damaged by trying to
remove the adhesive from left over tape. . .Eek! What we have here is
about 4-5 2-3" areas with absolutely no finish on them.
On urethane varnish, I would simply say unequivocably strip the varnish
and do it over again. But doing a little reading, McCloskey's Spar is a
phenolic varnish, so I have a little question: is it possible to spot
repair such phenolic varnish with any success?

I'm on the wrong continent for this stuff, but isn't a "phenolic"
(usually a rather brittle, if hard, resin) "spar varnish" (a flexible
varnish for the flexing parts of ships) rather an oxymoron ?
