Philco 50 (early) cabinet restoration
#1

I’ll be starting on this cabinet shortly.  

[Image: https://www.dropbox.com/s/m2q0aihh6ktkhk....jpg?raw=1]

It’s the early version 50 that used a 70 cabinet with a re-drilled bottom.  There is some loose veneer that needs gluing before anything else but the grill cloth will need replacing so I need to get it ordered.  Here’s a shot of what was on the cabinet.

It looks a lot like Kenneth’s Whiskey Rayon (scroll down page to get to it) to me and the folks at RadioDaze have a cloth they suggest for the 70 cabinet.  I’ve bought the Whiskey Rayon but have not actually seen the RadioDaze product.  Any thoughts on which would be the best fit?  Thanks!!
