Anyone know of a good product that could be used to help repair crazing on the top/front panel on my 38-116 Philco?
I have read that some have had luck with rubbing it down with something that will kind of meld the lacquer finish, followed by a coating of clear lacquer.
Really don't feel like refinishing it as the rest of the cabinet is in excellent condition.

Hi OSanders, Look carefully at the band switch. Turn it slowly and "wiggle" it around the desired band. ...MrFixr55 — 12:33 AM
