This has a leatherette cover. I’m assuming I start with warm water and soap for cleaning followed by mineral spirits?? Is there a source for replacement cloth,
It looks like a smooth brown leatherette not a textured leather like on the pt-87

I would start with wiping it down with a wet cloth then use the GOOP hand cleaner to remove the tough stuff. If the covering is not too badly damaged you may get by with cutting patches from the wrap around on the inside of the cabinet.

Boy, I've seen some sad tenite escutcheons lately.
