New Philco project on the bench

Aran on the lifting issue on the dial glass you could use paint masking tape (blue) and tape up the front of the glass and then use clear spray lacquer to coat the back. I would take a bit and try it on an area that is out of sight to make sure the lacquer doesn't do something strange before coating the entire surface. You may even lay something over the open area on the back if you don't want to spray that area, basically just coating the outer edges. I have done this in the past to seal any lifting issues.
