replacing artificial leather on a 46-350 radio
#1

has any one replaced the artificial leather and do you have any instructions on do it I need all the help i can get, thank you
#2

I have patched the covering for this model but never had to replace it. I did a restoration on a Zenith TO (R600 I think) and discovered techniques for replacing the skin on Zenith web sites. I would imagine it's much the same. If you can get the old sections off in one piece, maybe with a little heat and a blade, you will have a pattern for each piece. Take lots of pictures.
#3

The previous owner cut holes in one side so I removed the ends and all other leather. The ends came off in one piece but they seemed to have been formed around the corners no cut marks.
#4

Donald, do you have a picture of your radio?
