Philco 38-690 electronics restoration.
#28

yes, morzh stuffed new caps inside the old shell of the paper cap to keep the original look. This restuffing technique takes a fair amount of extra work so most folks for most radios don't do it. you warm up the old cap and pull the guts out of it leaving the paper/cardboard tube. A new cap is inserted and then refilled with something like hot glue. Some use old was pulled from old caps or new wax with the brown coloration.
