Yes absolutely you can do that any time.

Done exactly that with much older bats and had no issues, as Buzz says absolutely nothing to worry about.

Should be absolutely fine. I have done it with some of my older bats.

I've more than often noticed this, the bats knocked/ prepared specially by machines are a job half done. And then they put scuff sheets on top and call it a day. I personally take it off, do one coat of light oli, leave it for 24+ hours, hammer it again, specially the edges, bone them on the bath tub or sink and then put a hammeredge on.
