Well, it looks like I got lucky. The glue that was used to hold the plaid fabric onto the front of the TV is soluble with denatured alcohol, and the alcohol will not damage the original finish or remove the factory decals for the adjustment controls. This means that all I have to do is carefully remove the glue with some cotton cloth and the alcohol and then touch up the original finish. Of course, I'll still need to fix the tack holes, but those are on the corners and I can hide the repairs pretty easily. Here are some pictures. The picture on the left shows the side with most of the glue removed (about an hour's work), and the picture on the right shows the other side which has not.
