Yeah... I did get some of the green tape for the next project I'm working on.  Seemed to work a lot better.  

This is the cabinet right now, did 2 coats of clear and put the dial back on.  Eventually I'll get around to getting a decal for it.  The grill cloth just arrived, so will be putting that in soon...
