Starmaster Repair

Hi All;

I'm original owner of a 18" f4 Starmaster dob purchased in 2009.  After many years observing in the humid skies of Florida the black coating on the bearings are showing signs of wear and a spot or two on the natural wood could also use a touch up.  I'd appreciate any advice the the coating used on the bearings and what type of varnish to use on the natural wood. 

Regards,
