Glass dial & metal backpane cleaning? (Philco 47-1230)
#11

On the 1230 and its siblings, the glass is painted and has a metal attachment directly in contact with it, that resembles a layer of paint, then some space for the needle before an actual backplane where the lights shine.

That pane only has openings where the stations are written, to see the needle. I originally assumed it was paint, I believe most radios don't have such robust protection on the back of the glass... Problem is to paint it, I guess.
