Philco 38-3 That old musty smell..
#1

Hi Guys,

I have all of the components out of the cabinet because I wanted to do a thorough cleaning. I already used a nice coding of Howards Restor a Finish and some of the Wax they sell and the outside looks great. I've had the cabinets for a few months sitting in my apartment and really noticing some smelly old musty smells in the empty cabinet. The cabinet doesnt have a back door which i'd like to add, but before that I wanted to see if I could get that old smell out of the wood.....

Its got more of a musty smell, not so much moldy.

First I tried some nice Murphy's wood cleaner which helped a little but still noticeable, then I bought some baking soda and put it in bowls. It helps but still sort of lingers. I heard about Natural Magic odor removers, anyone recommend those? I think I want to throw something like htat in the cabinet, close the back door and let it sit there.

Can anyone give me some recommendations? I'm sure you've all had to deal with that old smell

thanks!
Jason
