Before attempting to refinish you need to know what exactly what existing finish is. Is it faux painted wood grain?, if so you can only scuff, prime and paint (using any one of a large selection of paint effects).
If its stained hardwood veneer than you can strip and re-stain/refinish. Stripping can be done by either sanding and scraping or by chemical strippers.
The plastic curly-dos can probably be gentled scraped off with a good glazing type putty knife, do this before attempting the balance of the refinishing, regardless of whether you are going to repaint or refinish.
