Peerless Radio Find
#13

So I tried the perfect brown on a piece of the speaker cloth but it only made it look wet. Not good.

I used Mohawk sanding sealer and Ultra-Flo semi gloss for the finish. I did find that Dap plastic wood cellulose filler worked pretty good as it stuck to the sanding sealer and did not come out of the pores of the wood.

 Anyway here's the finished cabinet. With that other rear arch in place and with that resistor hanging off the side, the chassis did not want to fit. Also I wonder if the knobs are original. They don't  fit the face very well.

As for the chassis restoration that will have to wait for another day.
