I have used Aldon many times. You can get little samples of finishes sent to you to try out. There premium stripper cuts through most things. I typically use mexiglaze and then moderate the glossiness of the finish with one of their topcoats. You can try a little laquer thinner on the scuff marks if the steel wool alone doesn't work. Aldon is peculiar. All purchases include shipping and they do not take returns.

To determine the coating I recommend trying some alkaline based stripper to remove the finish. If the alkaline stripper does not remove the finish, then you probably are dealing with an epoxy coating. ( GOOD LUCK ) this will be fun if you need to remove it .
