    This is what I always used for French carriage clock cases the clear one. Paint it on with a very fine artists brush, it dries very quick. https://www.cousinsuk.com/product/lacquers-rapid-drying

    I'm assuming you can't re-pivot the wheel. I would go for a replacement platform, just make sure the leaf count is the same, that is the the teeth on the escape wheel.

    With this type you will find it also has a two piece stem, so you will need something to go behind the button and then pull, I always used a pair of nippers.

    Could you post photos of the movement and platform.
