Hi,

Thanks to those who responded. I ended up using a flexible loctite Xtreme Repair Adhesive. Seems to have done the trick. I'm very happy with how this radio turned out. Here's a link to my website showing its restoration:- http://www.tuberadioland.com/philco41-245T_main.html

The main challenge was straightening the tenite escutcheon and I used gentle heat from a heat gun (increasing it until the plastic just started to respond to the straightening). Others have suggested using hot water, but I didn't get that to work at safe water temperatures - I wasn't too willing to work with really scalding hot water. Until this, I hadn't thought straightening this stuff was possible. Remains to be seen how long it stays as it is however!
