I could not take the top so I ripped it off. It did not come off whole so it will need to be glued up but at least it will be solid when I am done and I can fill it properly.
I could actually stain this radio since the repair came out very good. You can hardly notice it now that I have sanded off all the glue and filler residue.
The pic is of it before i sanded off the excess filler.
Of course I will still paint it even though the wood is beautiful. It will have to match the Philco refrigerator I buy later in life.
Took the cabinet outside today and added the appliance epoxy. Looks like a new Fridge. Tomorrow I will put her back together and wait for my fridge to come to me
Kirk, I'm not sure about that model but the 42kr has a silver rectangle decal with black letters that is more of a sticker than a decal. To make one I painted a piece of printer paper with silver paint then I found the right font and printed it with my computer, I ran it through a few times so the letters would be bold and deep black, then I cut it to size and used spray adhesive to apply it.
