no man if anything i would try to buff it with a very fine wax based compound..you are going to destroy it the other way and you dont want to have to replace it $

the shellac mercedes uses on the wood trim in these vehicles is incredibly durable. similar to rolls-royce in that when new, you literally would have be able to crush out a lit cigar without any damage to the finish. as is the case in most high-end vehicles, the elegant grained or swirled wood trim you see is only a thin veneer, attached to an unfinished wood panel of a different, sturdier wood. because of the delicate nature of veneers, any repairs should be left for professional wood workers.
