philco 80 jr. help please. 1st time restoring a radio this old
#21

Gojo hand cleaner (without pumice) seems favored. Apply with 0000 steel wool and repeat until it comes off clean on a clean rag. A proper "scratch" removal product to even things out and then a couple rounds of Johnson Paste seems to be what is known as "The Treatment". Do a search for this here or on the other forum. The process has been described several times and the result is stunning. Check out some results!
