I looked at the cabinet again today, and the right side, with the worst of the flaking lacquer, really demanded more effort in preparation and rework. Reluctantly, I broke out the 150 grit paper and rubbed back carefully to wood in these areas, being careful to avoid passing over the photo finish "crossbanding". This was quite successful, and was followed with 200 grit. A first wipe over, sparingly, with tung oil brought out the colour, and I will continue to build up finish in this way. I'm rather pleased with the results, and this radio is going to look sharp again, and play as well as it ever did.

Pics to follow.

I don't hold with furniture that talks.
