Hello everyone,
I have seen some great info here about restoring wooden radios, but what about the metal cased ones? I got 2 (a 65 and a 511) at a swap meet and they are both in need of some work. Can someone give us a rundown on how you strip such a thing and how to paint it afterwards (prime, paint, varnish etc.)? I'm still working on the innards, but It's something I want to plan.
Thanks,
Ken
