Get it professionally refinished then place it in a hermetically sealed glass case and never touch it again. For extra peace of mind you could place the glass case it in a steel storage container next to the car you never drive through fear of getting it scratched or chipped by road debris.

It was so thick and tough it would have survived a nuclear assault unscathed.
First match the colour using either nail varnish (yes I know the strat is poly, but it will only be a basecoat) or white paint. Then drop fill with superglue, sand back and buff with a cutting compound - T-Cut if you don't have any reducing compound like meguiars.
Everyone I've done on poly is virtually impossible to find unless held up against the right light. The same can be done on Gibsons, but nitro always leaves a halo unless you blend in with an air-brush.
I know, looks terrible, but it plays OK. After 3 decades in my care I'm starting to like it.
