Cut some pieces of BLUE painters masking tape to cover the medallions. Yes you can use a old toothbrush but get some of the Formbys refinisher or look for the Parks brand (cheaper) at Lowes or Home depot. Eventually the solvents will soften the toothbrush. Get some 00000 (super fine) steel wool. It will take you 10 to 20 minutes to strip the finish. Wear solvent resistant gloves. Very easy and if the grips are bad shape you will not make them any worse.
If you can, take some pics or PM me with them and I'll help you figure out what to do with them.
Get the Furniture kind. Follow the destructions
