If you really want to make these look new, get a plating kit from Caswell. Build your own power supply and save a lot of money.

Not great pictures, but, I replated a lot of the parts for this radio:

And I did all of the parts on this radio less the chassis, which I probably should have also done. I could have purchased all of the tools and materials I needed for what it cost and I would have saved months of frustration (dealing with the guy that plated it).
