I am working on a nice Philco 18H late for a client. The grill cloth is frayed in places and I am not sure I can repair it or have it rewoven. Thoughts?
If not, I need to find a close replacement. I am aware of Kenny Richmond's stuff and Radio Daze who has a single chevron cloth. I was wondering if there are other multi-chevron options out there? I saw this one on eBay and wondered what you all thought of it?

Here is my radio grille cloth:
