No one commented about the burn marks on these dials, so let's move on.
I have primed and painted the dial back plate. As it turns out I had some gray primer on hand, so between that and the cheapie Wal-Mart white paint it looks good now. Not perfect but good.
And speaking of dials, the new dial scale for this radio should be here in a few days. Rich at Sound Remedy has the speaker. I will need to get the cabinet repaired and refinished now. And I still don't know what kind of grille cloth I should use, since the original wheat stalk pattern was never reproduced.
