Material identification
It definitely isn't bakelite.
Since both Micarta and Tufnol include phenolic as a subset, I'm guessing
that's what it is based on color and texture.
Still seeking a way to refinish it.
Thanks for your help.

Can anyone tell me the name of the brownish or red-brownish material used
to make blocks, sheaves and winches? I have heard Delrin suggested, but
the only kinds I can find are white and black. Also, can paint (what kind)
be used to finish it?
Thanks,
BS
