It looks like I will have to re-paint this thing. It seems that the previous owner who initially re-painted it scratched the heck out it, while removing the original paint?...can I sand these out to prep for re-painting?
....also the gouges near the hole in the cabinet are deeper than just a scratch (see the very first pic, before stripping)...too deep to sand. Can I fill with bondo? or something?..
it is interesting that the bottom still has a sheen to it under the 2 coats of paint. I think the rest of the cabinet was sanded before the repaint, but didn't sand the bottom.
I still have some cleaning up to do. It looks like I will have to remove the loop antenna, as I'll never clean the inside up without ruining it....
This is never gonna be a pristine example...but I'm learning some stuff, I guess.
